Central Victorian
Get Together IV: Mighty Murray
Anzac Day (25th
April) 2010
Come and enjoy a day of
socialising and geocaching in the popular city of Echuca on the
Mighty Murray River.
Just 2 hours from the
outskirts of Melbourne, Echuca offers everything from old fashioned
country hospitality through to restaurants that can cut it in the
big league.
This Central Victorian
Get Together will be the fourth in what has become a annual event
showcasing some of the cities in central Victoria.
Everyone enjoyed the
inaugural event in Bendigo, then a group of hard working and
committed cachers from Shepparton upped the ante with an event
followed by a great night of socialising, food and trivia rivalry.
Last year's event in Ballarat gave everyone a chance to see some of
the magnificent Botanical Gardens on the shore of Lake
Wendouree.
Although this year's
event won't have a trivia night or botanical specimens it will have
a large grassed and fenced playground, covered BBQ and toilets. BYO
tucker for the BBQ, drinks and something to sit on. Within 300m
you'll find a high quality fish 'n chip joint and a KFC for those
wanting greasies. There's plenty of parking in the immediate area
and the park is wheelchair semi-friendly.
We'll be there from 11am
till mid afternoon, although we suspect many will shoot through and
go hunting for caches.
Don't forget to run a PQ
covering southern NSW. There are a few caches in and around Echuca
and some just over the border. I'm sure a few more will pop up at
the day nears.
We look forward to
catching up with familiar faces and meeting a few new ones.
