    Default CCG going to the TOYOTA Nationals @ Easter April 6th to 9th

    Early advice that the Toyota Nationals are on again at Dubbo at Easter, April 6th to 9th 2007! It was an absolute blast this year and 07 will no doubt be as good if not better.

    Accommodation was very tight last year so we need to get as many bookings as we can into the front section of the Matilda to ensure we keep all the CCG together.

    After some regrettable issues last year there may have to be a deposit, or even full payment plus deposit, provided for each room to ensure we dont have similar problems.

    Phil and I will be coordinating arrangements over coming months for the CCG cruise and events at the Nats. Just a heads up at this stage for your diaries, More info to follow.....
    Cheers

    Looking like the GT8....would love to get the rolla there but looking like more work than i can physically get done in time. Simon is up to his eyeballs in house improvements so if the rolla does get running it'll be in rough form only

    I may come. Depends on Uni and Work commitments, and whether or not work is actually open over easter.

    If your interested in staying at the Matilda Hotel with the rest of the Nats crowd Id suggest you call Kerri at the Matilda on 68823944 to book a room ASAP. She said there were only a few 'standard' rooms available out the front of the Hotel with us. Standard room is with a queen and a single bed. Unserviced room with 3 people staying in a room (worrk out who is in the queen bed fellas...Ha!!!) for 3 nights = $101 per night. Anyway...check out the site and ring up and book a room ASAP.....Shane....Justin!

    Hey Clint. Well we CCGans are leaving at 8.30 am on Friday 6th. Heading up through Molong, Cudal and Cowra to Dubbo. Hoping to get all the CCG cars together like previous years with CB socialising along the way. Most will be heading back mid-late morning on the Monday. Only a 4 hour-ish drive for us Canberrans.
    So you gracing us with your presence this year? Bringing one of the GT4s?
    Cheers

    UPDATE - We are getting organised for another assault on the TOYOTA Nationals this Easter in Dubbo from 6-9 April. So far we already have 18 people booked in from Canberra, that I know of, with LOTS of others that are interested in going too.

    If you wish to stay at Dubbo and enter the Saturday Shownshine or the Sunday Drags, the forms can found at http://www.toyota-nationals.org.au/ (even has a pic of Tweety on the front page!).

    We will be leaving Canberra on Friday 6 April at 8.30am from the truck stop on the Barton Highway just out of Hall as per previous years. All are welcome to join in on the cruise as this is not just for CCG members. Accommodation is at the Matilda Motor Inn but rooms are completely booked from what we hear. If still considering going we suggest you call the Matilda on 02 6882 3944 or have a look at the TOYNATS site http://www.toymods.net/forums/showthread.php?t=15434 for more info.

    Tips for those who have not previously attended are:
    - CBs (Channel 16) are a must for those cruising as we can all keep together and entertain those cruising alone in their ride.
    - BYO grog with you for Friday/Friday night to Dubbo as the bottlos will be closed due to Easter Friday….VERY IMPORTANT!!!
    - Bring hat, sunblock , sunnies , camera etc and even a chair for the drags.
