Book your own accommodation.

"The Goods Shed" has been upgraded with a large fireplace, plus it has an fire pit just outside.

Pub just up the road (300m) for dinner and beverage. (to be advised, service was slow last time)

More details to follow.

BUT don't forget to bring blankets to donate :thumbs :thumbs :thumbs

The OzSToc Blanket drive is approaching again after successfully raising over 70 blankets last year which helped ST Vinnies save a lot of people from the cold weather  :clap
It was a fantastic effort by a lot of OzSToc attendees and their friends who gave blankets to the cause  :thumbs

Its time to start planning to build up your blankets for donation by cleaning out cupboards of stored blankets, buying blankets or sending money so a blanket or two can be purchased on your behalf  ;-*

It was a fantastic weekend at Neville sidings so lets see if we can get as many or more blankets to donate to those who need them  :thumbsup

Sadly I won't be able to make it this year, had a great time last year! It conflicts with the Ulysses AGM. 😥

But is there an account that we can credit with some dollars towards the purchase of blankets?

At this stage I will be unable to attend the Neville gathering, as my plans put me 4WDing in the Kimberley.    However, I will undertake to collect some more baby blankets and get them to Pitstop at West Wyalong.

Update - 13 blankets were raised from this years OzsToc blanket drive  :clap

The drive helps St Vinnies help those less fortunate keep warm this cold winter.

Big thanks to the three people who donated this year.  :hatwave Your support is most appreciated.
