Hi all
Menangle Military Muster Update Less than a month to go before we launch the first ever MMM. Here are a few updates to help with planning. The main funds raised go to Legacy with the remained for operating costs. To clarify we are asking a camping fee at this event of a $10.00 donation per day (capped at $20) regardless of days. Any help in shaking donation tins or activities for the public to raise money for legacy would be greatly appreciated. Confirmed Exhibits and Displays Include: Large Military Vehicle Display Medieval Archery Society Swordplay School of Theatrical Fencing and Stage Combat Camden Air League A Digital Projector in the evening (bring your pics on cd or memory Stick) Re-enactments of trench Warfare We are hoping for a Pipe Band Trade Stalls on the Weekend Catering will mean we can have a Saturday Night Dinner (cost unknown at the time of print) but please register your interest so we can confirm numbers. There will be BBQ sales both days on site. • We will be holding a military Vehicle Gymkhana to test your skills and show off (Possibly laugh a bit too) Register on the day to participate. • We will have dirt piles to traverse a small water and mud crossing with heavy vegetation perfect for photographs. • There will be a grand parade and photograph line up both days • Saturday night will feature a night drive and trek onto unknown grounds after dinner then return to the museum for a bonfire and warm drinks at the drovers camp as we warm up. • Sunday Evening there is the Breakaway Dinner we have a room booked in Camden Valley Inn (about 15mins from the museum). They have log fires a full bar and bistro for the evening. Meals are high quality and feature all tastes and price ranges. How Can I get Involved? I’m glad you asked. We need helpers to act as club liaisons. There are many people that have vehicles but are not club members. These people would like to be involved with the weekend but will need a hand to get involved. You may wish to help promote the AMVCS at the event. We need helpers for the grans parades and the activities. The main help we need is to promote the event. As this is our first time our budget is small. Please Share on facebook, email the flyers to everyone you can think of (available to download at www.csmm.com.au) If you have any friendly places you can print off a flyer and stick in a window or on a noticeboard that would help a great deal. If you have anyone who may wish to display please encourage their attendance. I thank you for your support and look forward to seeing you there. Best regards Andrew McVey.

Hi Jan and others,
I notice it says trade stalls- does that mean there is some kind of swapmeet (too?) This kind of event has been lacking in Sydney (the central east coast!) for along time and am glad it has got up and running. I am sure they would make ALOT more money to assist Legacy should they offer a military swapmeet (perhaps next year) in terms of gate takings and stalls (even better if it started at a reasonable time in the morning too). Ian.

There will be an opportunity for Swap Meet Stalls. I think the cost is minimal with the money going to Legacy.
it will be a good opportunity to catch up with people and meet new people who may be interested in our hobby. The AMVCS and KVE will have information on their clubs and other clubs are welcome to do this. It could end up being a good way to get new members.
