Bin wondering how the big weekend went at Ivanhoe and I’m sure it was a roaring success as usual. Any highlights and I’ll let you know, (thanks Longie!)

Not a lot happening this week, we have the Balranald ICPA having “The Hatfield Happening” at the Hatfield Hall next Thursday. I’m sure they would welcome any travellers going that way. And on that very same day, the Red Earth Cafe in White Cliffs is re-opening for business. And, by the way! White Cliffs and Wilcannia both had very successful “Biggest Morning Tea” last week, well done girls.

Then the next weekend (Long weekend 7-9^th.) we have the Golf weekend at Menindee for all those golf enthusiasts both local and travellers. And our own Wilcannia Field and Fun Day. This has grown from our  3 Trade stands last year, to 2 sheep studs, 1 Santa Stud, and at least 10 trade stands including a Highway Patrol car, (for inspection only!!) as well as Pip Hudson with his sheep dogs, Mog Davies with her horses, and of course the Wilcannia Gift.

Don’t forget the Topar Camp Draft, everyone will be heading there on the 28^th. June, not far away. Thanks heaps to those who have emailed in, every little bit helps, said the monkey, when he peed in the river!

My email is getting a bit lopsided, all from the south, come on you Bourke guys, what’s going on up there please, got to be a dogfight somewhere!

So, a bit coming up in June, keep me posted please, till next week, cheers Bill Elliott WCTA.
