Default Corowa dinner

Hi All,

I am looking at organizing a Dinner at (a) Pub Friday night in Town (Details to be advised).

(Plan A)
7:00pm sit-down, staggering distance from Ball caravan park.

PM Me directly if you are interested NO LATER THAN MARCH 5. I will get the menu tomorrow & put it up on here too. That way you fussy people can get to know what you can & cant have.

I am aware some like to camp at the aerodrome, but it would be nice to see people & have a nice dinner chat before the parade on Saturday

There will be no organized dinner on Saturday night by KVE before the auction & presentation, so this might be your only chance to say hello.

Default transport required

Jan can not log on to MLU at the moment, and has asked me to post this, one of the many requests that she receives regarding Corowa.

In my role as Secretary I always a few different requests. This is the latest.
Can anyone help???

I don't know if you can help with this request but here goes!

I have acquired an unregistered trailer that needs to get from just outside Brisbane to Sydney. If you hear of anyone organising transport for Corowa that could do a drop off in Sydney for a share of the petrol costs could you please let me know.

Kind regards

Default Imitation Firearms Storage Arranged for Corowa.

NSW Police Firearms Registry have given the go ahead for permits to be issued for those persons who apply for permits to display Imitation Firearms on their
Ex-Military vehicle during the Corowa 2010 "Year of the Jeep".

Secure storage is to be at the Corowa Airport and I as President of KVE Inc. will be the key holder. There will be a book in - book out system.

If you are still to put in your application for Permit to Display an Imitation Firearm at Corowa, Please list the storage as 'Secure Storage at Corowa Airport.'

Sometimes we can move mountains.
Regards Rick.

The official tally of vehicles now stands at 232 vehicles with 161 of these being Jeeps.

The pre-registration period closes on Sunday 28th February however I will still accept forms up until Friday 5th March. Make sure you get your form and the money to me this week.

We are still waiting on the reply from Sir Tom Jones and David Campbell. The previous manager of Ball Park Caravan park is now assisting us with this request.

Today I received anther 12 pre-registered entry forms bringing the total at the moment to 285.

The Corowa RSL has double booked for Lang's talk on Thursday 11th March so we will be having the talk at the Jump Shak which is at Corowa Airport. Plan to be there around 6pm and if possible bring a chair. If you are interested in a meal at the Jump Shak they will be doing a Gourmet BBQ. It will cost $15 for adults and $7.50 for children under the age of 10 years. You will need to put your names down on the list so they can correctly cater for the evening. There will be a list at the Site Office and one at the Airport. Make sure you put your name down on one of the lists or contact Tabitha prior to this night.

Everything else is going as planned. With the large numbers of people the site office will be open longer hours. on Monday and Tuesday the hours will be 8.30-11am followed by 3-6pm. On Wednesday, Thursday and Friday it will be open from 8.30-6pm. Make sure you come down and sign in as soon as you arrive in Corowa. There will be a number of things for sale including stickers, badges, calendars, caps, and Keith Webb's DVD's. Your participant packs contain some very valuable information and momentoes.

If anyone is planning to arrive on Sunday 7th March and would like to be included in the Carvery dinner at the Corowa RSL please let me know by Wednesday 3rd March.
