Sorry mate - we stopped the slanging to get on with the organising.
I'm organising the rental of either:
a. Holiday Units, or
b. OnSite Vans
So that we can all stay in town. This will also reduce the organising requirements for on the property.
Check out the Melbourne to Berridale thread for more details.

just wondering how much it'd cost to get my junk down there and back, cause i don't want to have to worry about babying it around, plus i'd need to be back for uni on the monday probably, so i'd probably fly down and back
Ive transported a car from gold coast to canberra! Through Combined Car Carriers in Elanora. Arrived in Canberra through Canberra Carways.
Just checking my receipts now and there is actually no price on them
From memory it was about $200-$300.
Combined Car Carrieres phone number is; 5598 5433
Hope this helps

i agree totally it might be cold but nothing a fire couldn't fix, i vote property camping ( i know where not voting but if we did i would vote for the cold)

Camping!
Planned camping in the mountains is ok.
It’s the unplanned night spent in the mountains that’s a bit cold and uncomfortable.

May also be able to tow home some of the dead or wounded

had to dig back to page 8 for this
what's happening guys? is the zook club gonna allow us to join so we can have insurance cover etc? are we still on, or has CITC bitten the dust as just another good idea that was too hard to organise?

It has proven to be all too much for our little club. Actually what is happening is our club insurance is currently under review as there maybe a change of under writers. So as it sits it is not the best time for our club to be undertaking an event that requires insurance on private property.
As to organising it as I said I am willing to try and get it up and running but the July dates weren't good for me. Anyone else is free to take the reins and try and get it happening but at this stage it is looking unlikely

shame the dates don't suit ya, but i guess u can't do much if the club can't cover us.
