From a discussion this morning with Roscoe at Flinders Camping in Rundle Street. All new and existing members are offered a 15% discount from now until EASTER.
Go in and check out their range. Don’t forget to let them know you’re from the Friends of Heysen Trail.
The show is over and the fat lady has sung.
Thanks to all our vounteers for the hours they put into personing the stand under somewhat trying conditions (particularly Sunday)
.
Ably led by Jack Marcelis the event was a great success with some sales being made and quite a lot of interest being shown in walking, the walk programme and the Friends.
Thanks to walking SA and Chris Bushell.
Join Walking SA and the Friends at the Caravan and Camping Show, Stand K45-46, Wednesday 13th to Sunday 17th at the Wayville Showgrounds. Come and see all the latest in Caravans and Camping and pop in and say hullo. We are opposite the indoor helicopter stand, near Orienteering SA, at the Leader Street entrance.
Members and visitors to the Pitt Street Shop/office will now be greeted by a bright fresh entrance to the basement.
A working Bee on the weekend has given a make-over to walls, handrail, and a large new sign on the wall above the entrance.
Thanks to our volunteers – Colin Edwards, Julian Monfries, Jim Alvey, Sandy Melbourne, Robert Alcock and Jeremy Carter. Many thanks to Colin who is the instigator and driver of this make-over, and the overseer (taskmaster) on the weekend. Without his vision and energy, we would still have a gloomy entrance to the shop.
To further improve the entrance, we have ideas for a few paintings for the walls. We need help. Anyone with artistic flair, or knows of where we can get help with the painting of wall Murals, please contact the office.
