Snowy 2.0 Illawarra Chapter - (apologies to the PM) – weekend 9 March 2018
Tony & Jenny’s Snowy Mountain weekend from 2016 is back with a twist in 2018; bigger and better than ever. It will take a 4-day long week (for those of us still at work) but we have a schedule and accommodation that will provide heaps of gear changes, fun and great value for money.

This event is now fully booked and closed. We have 34 people attending.
