At the end of next September (starting on the 27th for four days), the Sydney Jeep Club will be hosting the 2012 Jeep Jamboree. I'd like to see a sizable KJ group for this one and encourage everyone to see if they can make it and come along for a great time in the Blue Mountains. The Jamboree camp site will be the Rydal Showground:

I hope we can get a KJ camping area setup within the Showground.
BTW this is not a Showground like at Camp Coffs, there are no busy roads anywhere near this location, the nearest sizable town is Lithgow, and it is the stepping off point for the many Blue Mountain tracks and trips that SJC members will be conducting (at all levels) over the four days of the event.
I know for sure that DaveG, and I will be there. Hopefully this will be a major KJ Gathering for 2012.
Checking the driving distance calculator, it shows 1007kms from Brisbane to Lithgow (and you don't have to go through Sydney to get there). The shortest route from SEQLD appears to be down the Newell Highway (Ipswich, Armidale, Tamworth, Muswellbrook, and down the Mudgee road to Lithgow).
From the south (Melbourne for example) the distance is 960kms through Albury, Wagga Wagga, Cowra, etc).
Hope to see you there.
