Rodnet's Kalbar event clashes with Laidley event so Rodnet is happy to re-schedule Kalbar to this weekend in October. Fassifern Car Club holds its Swap Meet in the Kalbar Showground on Sunday 15 October. Last year the Swap Meet drew in 2000 visitors, 100 classic cars & 190 stallholders so it should be a neat little country event.
Market, Bric-a-brac, Cars, Trucks, Bikes, Old Engine, Trators, Car Show 10am presentation, Food & Drinks Stall
Entry: $5 Stall Holders - 5am, $2 General Public - 6am, Children 12 & Under Free.
For more info call Vince 0409 075 919.
I've phoned Showgrounds Caretaker, they will put us in a group close to Amenities, somewhere between pavillion & canteen, near the classic car display. We may have to pay $2/person to enter Swap meet or $5 vehicle entry for Show/Shine, plus camp fees (see below). Caretaker will need definite numbers by late September so post in this thread or PM me if you're interested in camping for the weekend & I'll pass on numbers to Caretaker. Can you tell me whether you'll be wanting to leave before Swap meet is over about 2-3pm Sunday arvo?
