Title: 2022 FNQ Myswag Christmas get together at Woodleigh Station
Post by: jclures on September 20, 2022, 07:37:50 AM: 2022 FNQ Myswag Christmas get together at Woodleigh Station
I contacted Woodleigh Station to make arrangements for this years get together, and we have now booked the camping area from the Thursday the 8th of December to Monday the 12th of December.
This was the weekend that was available to be booked for the event, so I have booked us in, and I hope this weekend will fit in for all of you to come along.
The camping fees are $25 per night per vehicle, I think this is the same as we paid last year.
We will have the usual combined dinner on the Saturday night along with nibbles earlier in the afternoon.
See you all there. :cheers:

Post by: Paul and Bern on September 22, 2022, 06:19:39 PM: :D The dates fall on my weekend home so should make it. Just had to drop a new head on the 'trol so hoping it stays together now, the mechanic who worked on it looked a bit dodgy :angel: so I only have myself to blame if it doesn' t lol. Need to try it out and this is a good excuse.
Thanks again for organising it.
:cheers: Paul

>:D I suppose that's what happens when the kids scramble your brains....
Will be putting dinner to a family vote, ie I'm trying to delegate cooking to someone else. :angel:

Hopefully it will be the 4 of us plus maybe 1 extra if we can talk them into it .... WARNING... if we do talk them around Matthew will be driving them up so watch out for an old beige cruiser ute with RED P's on it.

Cheers

Post by: The Caseys on December 15, 2022, 04:39:10 PM: Another spectacular Christmas getaway with wonderful friends. With the river being close it was utilised a lot to cool down during the day. Some of us went for a day trip to a nearby farm to check out other camping areas for future camping times. Other campers went too Ravenshoe.

No storms to worry about this time.

Again, awesome communal dinner with everyone putting up meals to drool over. Finishing the evening with Jan's famous Christmas cake.

Thanks for organising the weekend JC.

As always look forward to the next event.
