THINGS TO SEE and DO.

Suggestions for weekend.

There are no special events planned, we hope to just let the weekend unfold. If you would like to sit around & chat with old acquaintances you have met at previous group weekends or meet new friends that's fine.

Swimming The water in the Murrumbidgee River is OK for swimming; Young children should be supervised, especially if there is a water release from Burrinjuck or Blowering Dams.

Fishing from the bank is good with accessible fish holding structure along the foreshore.

Boat navigation is good but care should be taken to avoid sand/stone bars & mid river snags.

If you have one bring you own canoe or kayak along.

You do not need a camper trailer to attend. Members without a camper are more than welcome to come along & get a first hand unbiased opinion of a particular camper trailer from their owners.

Please keep in mind that the group owners will not accept any responsibility for members & non-members actions during the weekend get together.

If you decide to attend, it is solely at your own responsibility, including any side trips or outings during the weekend meet.
