scheduled for the week of 13th –17th September 2010. The usual three
outings are planned for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. Arrival is
10 am on Monday and departure is Friday midday approx. We expect
some Malaysians to come and with our current winter some warm
blankets on loan for them would be appreciated. Don't forget to
bring goodies for morning, afternoon teas and supper etc. Also bring
you own warm clothing too. Enquiries to Stan Seminow 9526 1189 Watch
out for enrolment forms arriving soon at your Assembly. (Even though
some folk went to Malaysia earlier this year our camp is still on.
They may have slides to show of their experience, I'm told they had
a great time and the locals paid for everything!)

after year. Bookings are for individual tent or caravan sites at all
times of the year, plus small groups up to 60 persons with use of
