We're planning to but have to see if we'll have the Jeep at that time.

Otherwise it'll have to be Camp Coffs 2014 side by side with Jambo 2014?? :hororr: :highly_amused:

Cool, looks like enough to setup 'Camp SJC' again :) We have a great little community feel up there, camp together, try and trip together and sit around the campfire telling stories abou the day.

Maybe time to start posting up when you plan to get there etc.

Cheers

I'm leaving on the 2nd after work and stopping at Harrington for the night and then an early start on the 3rd, you guys are welcome to come crash at the house at Harrington if you want as I'll be there by myself, Bec has to work so is coming up on the evening of the 3rd (with Emily) and Sean and Abby will already be up at Port Macquaire (school holiday trip) so I'm picking them up on the way.

Edit:- Bec says if you come up on the evening of the 3rd you're welcome to stay at Harrington as well as she'll be there that night.

Have a look here for costs and booking http://www.jeepaction.com.au/

Site is all dependant on when we get there and what we grab but usually we have no issue with space and plenty of room for our camp. There's no power and I dont think there is an issue with generators although you may cop a bit of flake from your neighbours if it's noisey and runnning a lot.

I will be going again this year.

For those going we'll setup camp in the same spot as last time at Nana Glen, dont forget it isn't at the Coffs Harbour showground this year, I've attached a map of the location. Come in the gate, marked in blue, and follow the trail around the back of the oval to the tree in the cleared area. It's flat, away from most others and there is a toilet block a short distance away (far enough to not be noticeable but close enough for a late night stagger). I'll be there Thursday AM with the club banners up.

If you need it there is a bottle shop and service station a short drive away, closer than going into Coffs but they dont have much other stuff there.

Cheers

Hey Steve, Quick question mate what facilities do they have at the showground? food wise. and is there open fires or best to bring gas BBQ?

Steve F

23-09-13, 03:36 PM

Open fires is fine although I normally take a gas BBQ for ease of cooking :) They normally have breakfast and dinner available as well as sandwich lunches so you can get away without any food but I'm not sure what they have this year maybe check the jeepaction site, I seem to remember them saying there is food on site :)

Steve F

Almost ready, lots on the roof this year with 5 of us and not bringing the camper. Those self inflating mattresses take up a lot of room too!!

Heading off to Harrington in a few hours and then into Coffs for lunch time on Thursday.

Whoever had their Jeep come home on a flatbed has to write the majority of the trip report...:eagerness:

Steve F

09-10-13, 05:41 PM

It wasn't a flatbed, it was a vehicle transporter ;) and I was chauffeur driven back after spending some relaxing time at a weekend getaway. Apart from that my trip report would be pretty limited :( But I can write a report from my perspective, it'll mostly involve beer and my thoughts on sitting andf drinking beer though ;)
