 Tinny Rally Reunion

When:   Saturday 7-8 August 2010

Due to popular demand there will be a Tinny Rally REUNION on the weekend 7/8 August at the old rally site at Tingoora.  It will be a camp over weekend only as it is not an organised rally as such, so there will be NO admission fees/badges,  also there will be NO catering/bar on site.

 

So BYO everything and come and socialise with your mates and share your favourite Tinny Rally moments.  Of course the Tinny Pub is just across the road, pop in and say to the new owners (as of last week) and Wondai is just 7 kms away for groceries, takeaway, butcher etc.

 

I would appreciate it if you are coming along that weekend for the REUNION, could you drop me an email and let me know.  AND remember it will be a bit cool.
