This is a snap shot of our upcoming program and a list of recent trips and activities.

Non-members are welcome to join us on a trip to see if you like it ...... we're confident you will!. Non-members will need to complete a Temporary Membership Application Form before they can join us on a trip - this is simply so that they may make use of the club's public liability insurance whilst on the trip and also to provide contact details in case of an emergency. There is also a small charge of $5 per vehicle for non-members joining the club on a trip (simply to help cover the insurance costs). You will need Adobe Acrobat Reader to open the PDF file.  The Acrobat PDF reader is available by clicking the icon:

If you are interested, come along to one of the monthly club meetings, contact the club's Public Relations Officer, David Martin, on (07) 3262 5665, or else call the Trip Leader for the trip you are interested in.

Stay at Coopernook State Forest camp ground.  Drive the area and visit Newbys Cave, Newbys Lookout,  Vincents Lookout,  Ellenorough Falls (one of the largest in the southern hemisphere) and Rawson Falls.  Walk up Mt Olive (a volcanic plug), and Flat Rock Lookout, plus whatever else we see on the way.

 It is touring trip so there will be no hard 4wding. We will be mainly on dirt roads (Forestry roads) - this part is rated easy. I will also try and arrange the NSW club and NSW forum to meet up with us - more about that later.

We will stay at Coopernook for at least 3 days then on to Stockton Beach for 2 days driving the dunes – (we all know how much fun that will be) this part rated Medium.

Any park fees and charges will be put in the next magazine.

You will need to take a week off work.

More details to come.
