When can we register? the sooner the better so I can start locking in plans and booking accommodation.

Evening everyone,

Some important facts for you to all consider for this years National Rally.

And I need to be some what blunt, so apologies in advance....but you will see where this is leading, so stay with me.


We have 29 people booked for NatRally 2019 in Tassie so far  :runyay Awesome and keep the registrations coming.

Camp Banksia was selected by the Tasmanian Rally Team as offering, in their opinion, the best possible mix of facilities and accomodation. This facility has reserved not only all its accomodation for OzSTOC members but also providing its common area’s and all site facilities for our communal gatherings.....I.e Meet & Greet etc.


And here is the stinger......of the 29 members registered as attending NatRally only 9 have committed to accomodation at Camp Banksia.

Now before you flame me..... I completely understand that people wish varied styles of accomodation and are paying for their preferred choice, but here we have a facility who is opening their business to paying customers and the vast majority are staying off site but will wish to be with the group for gatherings etc.

So to say this business is concerned needs to be stated, how would you feel as a business if only potentially a third of the people you are providing services to are paying customers ??

So to this end could I ask that members who are still to register PLEASE seriously consider using Camp Banksia for your accomodation.

A few of the meals will be at Camp Banksia for all attendees,  but I fear this may not be enough to keep us in their good graces.

Needless to say some take home lessons about member accomodation requirements have been gathered.

Thanks everyone for your consideration.

When I rang to book, all they had left was communal bunk sleeping with shared bathroom, I get what you're saying but my wife, and let's face it, me as well, don't find that exceptable, no offence intended, so we booked a cabin across the road

No- they really want you to book accommodation at Camp Banksia.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

Good news

My understanding is that with only 9 bookings for Camp Banksia, there is plenty of accommodation available.

Yes.
...... but all ensuite accommodation booked. 
Yes.

Have you posted this somewhere before, as this is the first time I'm reading about the meal PDF?

So everybody registered will need to fill this in and hand over your credit card details.

That is, download it, print it out, fill it in, and then either scan it back onto the computer and email it to Camp Banksia?

So if you don't have a printer or adobe acrobat to fill it in on your computer then you need to go down to the library and print it out there, fill it in and scan it back in to email it, or mail it to them???

you're making this process tough for some members.


Can't we just pay them once we get there?

I knew about it.  I got one emailed to me, printed it off, filled it in, posted it by snail mail and got a confirmation that they recieved it email on december 14th last year.

No I haven't, this has just been forwarded to me by the Tassie Rally team to post. This form is sent by Camp Banksia to those whom have registered with them.

So everybody registered will need to fill this in and hand over your credit card details.
If you are dining with the group Yes ! CB requires information for planning meals and staff and payment (you may elect to contact them for other payment methods)


That is, download it, print it out, fill it in, and then either scan it back onto the computer and email it to Camp Banksia?

Yep, that's what I did.

So if you don't have a printer or adobe acrobat to fill it in on your computer then you need to go down to the library and print it out there, fill it in and scan it back in to email it, or mail it to them???

Or they could ask for assistance, happy to work a solution for those who ask  ;-*

you're making this process tough for some members.

This is Camp Banksia's format not ours...


Can't we just pay them once we get there?

Talk to them, It's your booking....

Thanks everyone for doing this promptly as Camp Banksia are having a few conniptions about saving the park for OZSTOC on the basis of only a few registered Members with menu requests. Tomorrow is a kind of D Day for us to show the park the same kind of support they are showing us.
So please get in board now if you are thinking if joining the Tassie Rally dinner and presentations at Camp Banksia.  Cheers

I put our paperwork through last week and Camp Banksia were very good & very helpful. After confirming there were no cabins or other more private sleeping accommodation I explained we weren't top bunk people (gave that game up at least 20 years ago) and we'd pay for 2 sets of bunk beds if necessary. Sonia advised that provided there wasn't a huge demand for beds we'd be ok otherwise we'd have to pay for the top bunks as well. It's a gamble I'm happy to take to stay at the main venue.
Cheers ... Mark.

Completed form for all meals sent.

If all of us having meals at Camp Banksia will help to keep it available for the rally may I  suggest that as there are several threads about Camp Banksia all those registered should be immediately contacted by phone to ensure they are aware of the meal booking situation.

I would be happy to do this if I am supplied with names and numbers.
