Entrance to the grounds

Photos are a couple of months old, so judging by the reaction i'll take a run out there again for some updated photos next weekend.

I'm keen :D

It's only three weeks away though so i'm not sure if many people will be ready in that time........

[towe001]

Yeah true that. Have also been wondering if it'd be too cold for some as well.

Hopefully we'll be able to arm twist a friend into lending us their patio heater for the weekend which'll be a bonus

 

But just think how mad it'd be stepping out of the tent in the morning and see frost on the grass

where bouts is the camping ground located? i tried lookin on the toowoomba council site but it just says access via peachey or esk-hampton road, but which road is the camp ground on? oh, and yeah i'm keen to come out for a night :D

I have been ignoring all things rollaclub lately and I think it is about time I did something about it. At this stage i will say yes to coming but I will let you know a definate answer a bit closer to the time.

The link should work

http://maps.google.com.au/maps?hl=en&c...mp;t=h&z=14

In the map about where it says "Lake Cressbrook" is about where the camping ground is.

Directions - follow the New England Highway from Toowoomba, left at Pechey (Marion street) and stay on the road (it changes its name to Pechey Forest Road).

You'll came to a cross road and straight on to Perseverance Dam Road.

Now the "hard bit" is follow this road till you see a water tower on your left and its a left just after it. If you have a look on the map, Perseverance Dam Road ends at a T-intersection of Mount Jockey Road. The road to to dam doesn't have a name and its not marked on the map.

Could always see about making the camping date a little later. Just don't want to make it too late a date. Maybe the weekend after ?

Maybe last weekend in June might get a better turnout........either way, I'll be there

[towe001]

Ok, cool sounds like a plan

that'll make it, urm, 26th-27th june.

 

Would that be better for everyone ?

Means i've got a bit more breathing room for converting the turtle to a manual and hunting down a heater :happy:
