    Default Melbourne W.W.W. Show 21-23 October 2011

    Well, it is approaching the time of the year for the biggest and best show - Melbourne!

    As usual, I will be looking for people who would like to man the stand and assist me.

    I have put up on my website the schedule for shifts over the three days. Get in early and get the shift of your choice and, of course, free entry to the show!

    Ideally, I like two hour blocks to be filled as it makes scheduling easier. Typically, you turn up at a pre-arranged time or call me on arrival, I then come out with your ticket. A phone number will be provided to volunteers before the event.

    Over previous years most volunteers have found it a good way to catch their breath and meet a bunch of other forumites. Members will often attend the stand on a few days and really take the time to see the show and all the displays and demonstrations; in my view, this is the best way to do it.

    Please note: due to a very busy work schedule at the moment I will not be able to make the usual quick updates to the website, bear with me, I will try to update it at least once a day.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------
    WHEN: 21-23 October 2011

    WHERE: Melbourne Showgrounds, Epsom Road Ascot Vale

    TIME: 10am - 5pm, Daily

    ADMISSION (Same price as last year!):
    Adult $15,
    Concession $13,
    Kids under 14 Free
    Multi day pass discounts available

    Always thought about doing this, but never had the opportunity to help due to commitments, this year is different and I have time.

    Saturday the 22nd, 1000hrs to 1200hrs - DONE is best for me if possible.

    Mick.

    I do hope you manage to get the slots filled Greg,hopefully there will some more to fill in the blanks of your schedule soon.

    Unfortunately I cannot join you this year as I'm taking SWMBO on a NZ cruise for her birthday .

    Best of luck for the show ....time to start cracking the piggy bank

    Cheers
