Hi all,
Firefighter posted this info about the proposed program for Mildura on the main V V Nationals thread a while back, and it then promptly got lost amongst the other posts. So we figured we'd start a separate thread to keep you up to date with what is being arranged.
In the meantime we'd appreciate it if some of you who will be heading to the Nationals in May could let us know what they think of what we are suggesting re activities.
Whippy and Lovschack told us they are happy with what we are suggesting. What about you others?
Any and all comments are welcome!
