Hi Noel and Kate,

Based on the details contained in Karl's recent post, am I correct in assuming that there is no camping on the State Championship Trial Site?

Please can you provide directions to the Trial Site?

Kindest regards, Robert T

To All Competitors,

Please note that the State Championship weekend clashes with the very popular Heathcote Food and Wine Festival, hence accommodation may be in short supply. May I suggest you book early!

Due to the events happening in Heathcote and the limited resources available to camp Karl and Leslie have very kindly offered their property for triallers to stay for the weekend. Camping will be available at the property NOT BEFORE NOON on Friday October 4th (stewards are excluded and may arrive earlier). Entry will be via the second set of gates past the house entry, this will be sign posted.

Vetting will be carried out at the property and we will be leaving in convoy from there to the trial sites. Two different properties are being used so it is essential that triallers are at vetting each day. It will not be possible for triallers to take their caravans to the property on Day 2 so presentations will be held Karl and Leslie’s property at the completion of the trial.
Please contact the Trial Managers to advise as to whether you will be camping at the property.

As the properties we are attending are new and we are working with the owners, directions to the trial sites will not be advertised publically, if you wish to attend and will not be at vetting please contact the Trial Managers who will be happy to advise you of directions.

Any additional information regarding the trial will be updated accordingly.

Victorian State Championship


Karl has spoken with his neighbors, who just happen to own the winery across the road, and if there’s enough interest they will open the winery for a tasting. We’re thinking 4.30 ish!!

If you can let us know we’ll see if it’s a goer
