Carbon Conference, The Silver City Cup and more

Hi everyone

Disappointing clouds I guess you’d call it, although a few mills down in “the inside country”. A bit more moisture would be handy.

We’re coming to the end of the year and things are quietening down. However the big event now is “The Silver City Cup”, it’s coming up next Saturday in Broken Hill. Will be a great days racing, and of course you can do all the ‘Broken Hill’ things while you’re there, go out to Silverton, duck out and see the RFDS Base and scores of other things.

If you’re around the Cobar area, there’s a “Carbon Conference” being held in their little town on the 28th. and 29th. Should be interesting. Only a few Days after that the Ivanhoe RSL Club are holding their annual Melbourne Cup Calcutta, Monday 2nd. 8 PM. Great night out, and meet friendly people. Of course Wentworth are holding their Melbourne Cup Day Race meeting also if you are likely to be down that neck of the woods.

The Burra Country Music Festival 2015, is next on the list. It’s on 6th.-7th.-8th. Nov. A long way away but you may be heading that way.

Looking ahead to the 10th. Nov. We have the Aussie Muscle Car Run. It’s going to be going through Silverton, on the Mundi Mundi Plain on the 10th. starts at 2-30PM, gold coin donation and all to a great cause.

Of course most of these happenings can be heard if you listen ion to our friendly radio stations who cover from Timbucktoo to Woopwoop and beyond!

Don’t forget those numbers, ABC 657, 999, and 1584. 2BH 567, 2WEB 585, River Radio 103.1 and Broken Hill 107.7.

Unfortunately for some there’s nothing in the way of rain coming. Please be careful on dirt roads now as they are getting a bit rough and powdery, and can be dangerous with a caravan in tow.

Take care now and look out for your mate. Cheers Bill Elliott WCTA.

 

Last week’s little “quote” was a bit misquoted I’ve been told, what I meant was!!

“There is no point in looking back, that’s why aeroplanes don’t have rear vision mirrors”
