Yes I agree the event could have had more advertising. It is held each year over the October Long Weekend. One could say it is a well kept secret so that the event can not be pinched and taken accross the border like the Formula One event and I know you guys are wanting to move our National Motor Museum from SA to Vic. Heh Heh Heh. Had to get that one in.

But seriously, the weekend event is very well attended by people from all over who also like to travel the Flinders Ranges as well. It is a beautiful part of our state. I had a chap come up who was the editor for the Queendland Jeep Clup, he commend our group for the turnout and they were not aware of the event either, he said they were visiting the area and came accross us. there were 60 members of his club there.

Who knows we may see more military minded people there next once the word gets around.

Cheers

Tony
