History comes alive in Winchelsea

[Ryan]

Hi guys, I'm not connected to this event only having come by it by chance on the internet.
Maybe I should be as it is quite close to me.

Ryan,

By all means come along. You will be welcomed. There is one thing that the GMRG do moreso than any other group of restorers/collectors/military enthusiasts. They like to use the kit they have and not just park it and look at it. The battlefield re-enactments alone utilise a range of blank firing weapons and explosive pyrotechnics unmatched anywhere in the world. This is the beginning of what is hoped to be a biannual event utilising the French looking backdrop of Barwon Park homestead at Winchelsea.

Cheers Jack, I'll be there.
Hope you get a good crowd, how widely is it being adverised?

[jack neville]

Just being advertised locally and via word of mouth by the participants. It will get a mention in the Geelong Advertiser closer to the event I expect. The budget does not allow for much paid advertising.

Hi Tim,
sorry, I missed your reply.
That's some great toys.
Hey, we're just up the road so if you want to leave anything in the driveway by all means do.
