wopass wrote:new thread.

limited numbers so it doesnt get to stupid. will be a max of 15 vehicles.

first to confirm will be in.

will be a $20 per vehicle fee plus extra $10 for non assn members. money will go towards something 4x4 related and worthwhile...havent decided what yet (no im not going to use it for my fuel bill :roll: )

will try to make it an assn trip as well... after i find out how to do it :wink: wheres mike ?

we will be camping at the Ngaroma block so tents or other sleeping arangements(in your vehicle) will be essential or you can make your own arangements to stay at the PUREORA H.Q CABINS (contact D.O.C for more info)and travel to and from at your own lesure.

beers and storys before bed etc.

NO DRINKING AND DRIVING ! ( i will personally chop down anyone who does or trys to)

please only click poll if you are an absolute definate.


Hey, have you decided what the $20 fee is going towards :lol: ??

The visitors charge required by the NZFWDA is $2 :wink:

Suggestions for the $20 trip fee

- Put it towards wood for some seats or something at Pueora with a donated by http://www.offroadexpress.co.nz engraved into it.
- Donate it to the maratoto work party, the bill for the digger is $1000+
- Donate it to a local charity ... is there a local rescue outfit or something?


The visitor trip fee is a per day fee and most clubs charge $5, for a 3 day trip $10 is fair and the longer you stay the cheaper it gets, ie 2 days its $5 per day and 3 days its $3.33 per day.

I didn't say I was allowed to have those fridays off either, I think we called it wagging. :roll:

unfortunately I was one of those that stole lunch, its amazing how many lockers you can open with a trusty pocket knife. :oops:

the best thing about skool was the sports and the bush and firebreaks behind the skool that you could retreat to 8)

quite the opposite Bob. I was too bright and skool bored the hell outta me, so I found other shit to do.
Besides why go to skool when you can go possum trapping in the morning and sell the skins during the day for way more pocket money than your folks would ever give ya.
