the walks.
OR YOU CAN JUST COME ALONG FOR THE BBQ.
The BBQ will be fired up starting at about 4:30pm. Please bring
your food to grill, and a salad or side dish to share, along with
plates, cutlery etc and something to sit on.
For those opting to stay on and join those of us camping
overnight, there is a campsite. The campsite is a motor camp so
camper vans are welcome too. Please book your own campsite. Details
of the facilities (flush toilets and hot showers!), charges, and

can (try) to coordinate with the campground owner to group us
together.
