Mark,
Murray has had past dealings with Scott re this topic last year. His
phone number is in the syncrolist phone book.
Dates aren't usually a problem for me .... finding a hoon free 4WD bush
camp close to the Sydney region is. If it was my choice, I'd be heading
further out.
A possible single destination I mentioned last year (more a last minute
desperate alternative perhaps) suitable for a syncro meet and mingle
relax for the duration (no hoons) would be a rellos Hawkesury River
absolute waterfront property at Sackville south of Wisemans Ferry,
plenty of nice and flat grass to camp on, heaps of room for kiddies to
play, lights, electricity, toilet, kitchen, fridge, dining chairs and
tables, barbeque. Someone bring a speedboat and water skis and we can
ski the weekend away ... there is also a launching ramp. Only issue for
May timing is usual cool overnight and possible fog early morning at
this waterfront venue. Easy to get there. No 4WDing here though. Cost
for use of the facility would be we combine and replenish the owners
cellar or some other alternative. Maybe still a last resort alternative.
