Expect LOTS of them

In fact previous Corowa overall records may well be eclipsed just by Jeeps.

How on earth am I going to be able to interview even 25% of the Jeep owners??!!

Well, I reckon they are convenient for a quick run up the road to collect your beer and whisky rations...

That is exactly why the Sugarloaf Creek Hotel handed in it License as the nachos were borrowing a Jeep from the motor pool and driving over for a few quite drinks. This practice got out of hand and the Army couldn't control them and indicated that thy would appose any license renewal.

I have been receiving Entry Forms for 2010. If you look on the website www.corowaswim-in.org there is an updated Entry Form. There has been an addition to the Entry Form for people with Jeeps. We are looking at ways to identify the Fords from the Willys so on the day of the parade it will be easy to allocate people to a particular area.

Also attached is the latest copy of the KVE News. If I don't already have you on my database please send me an email with your contact details so I can inform you of updates. My email is kveinc@optusnet.com.au

It is difficult to predict the number of Jeeps at this stage but I am going to suggest 200.
