One other thing - the first one is always the smallest as the rule. If you make a good event, then it will keep growing throught the years. DON'T be discouraged by the first attempt.

Thats one of the good things about rover park, there is a mini zoo, a flying fox and a giant waterslide (ex wet and wild) for the kids. Also, the mud race on foot will have a kids event as well.

I have helped organise many events in the past and know a bit about it. One of the benefits of using rover park, esp for the first one is it can be run under their Public Liability insurance.

That makes a lot of sense. I will still try and make it.
Maybe we could organise a convoy from VIC hook up with some in NSW ect.
Anyway thanks for putting your hand up Maggot4x4.
