IMPORTANT Change of Venue
WGC June Long Weekend Trial Due to ground saturation from consistent rains affecting the Lower Hunter region it has become necessary to move the trial from the Singleton area to Middle Brook near Scone in the Upper Hunter. We have been fortunate to secure a number of new properties that have not previously been used for this trial and are certain that the use of these along with comfortable lodge style accommodation options below should allow for an entertaining and social weekend of competition.
If you have entered, but this change now causes difficulties for you, please contact Alison Menil on 0425 302 969 Email:
