I have a bigish blue tarp and a bunch of rope. It will completely cover a large car, if I remember correctly. Happy to bring it along, if I will be useful??

Close to 30 mouths to feed and keep dry.
Looking awesomely wet for both days:

Thank you for the offer of tarp Dougie. Who has the quick pitch shade tents we used at Wandin-Not Wandin?

Hi everyone,

The Melba Highway B300 is currently closed due to flooding between Coldstream and Yarra Glen. (just before Yarra Glen if coming from Melbourne direction) .

There are plenty of other ways to get to Bills . I suggest you check the Vic Roads road closure site for latest info and plan your route accordingly.

To club members planning to stay until Sun at Bill's:

The Committee reserves the right to cancel the trip on safety grounds should the need arise. Winds are forecast to rise through the afternoon and may make camping amongst gum trees treacherous. We will assess throughout the day and make the call after dinner.
Please moderate beverage consumption in light of the above.
