BRASS MONKEYS CAMPING WEEKEND

Lake Lyell (near Lithgow)
Arrive: Saturday, 20 July. Depart Sunday, 21 July 2024

Organiser:     
Phil Guilfoyle - 0431 503 763. email philguilfoyle@yahoo.com.au

Destination:  
Lake Lyell Recreation Park.

Meet:             
At Lake Lyell Recreation Park campground on Friday afternoon. We will have the billy boiling. Alternatively, you may wish to drive up together in groups that you organise yourselves.

The Plan:

There is no organised tour for this event. We drive to the interests and conditions on the day. At this stage, we are thinking of heading through O’Connell and having lunch at the pub at Rockley.

There are many alternative activities to suit members' interests (e.g. some might stay and fish, others might visit historic Lithgow). Although Brass Monkeys is informal, it is a VSCCA event and is on the Club calendar.

Lake Lyell Recreation Area includes a well-run campground with all facilities, offering activities like swimming (a bit cold), fishing (bass & trout allegedly) and access to the region (Lithgow, Tarana).

At this time of year, it will be very cold, but hopefully dry. This is the June long weekend.

The driving:

There is great vintage driving in every direction from the campground. It is 12km from Lithgow on Magpie Hollow Road. The roads around the area are beautiful and generally quiet. Some local roads are unsealed, but there are plenty of sealed alternatives.

Camping accommodation:

We have three adjacent un-powered sites at the Lake Lyell Recreation Park. These are sites #59 to #61 on the Lake Lyell site map. If you are interested, please contact Phil (not Lake Lyell) to reserve a place.

There are also powered sites, a cabin, and good facilities but no shop, so you will have to bring all your supplies.  Every site has a fire pit. Firewood can be purchased from the office but you bring your own if possible as we use a lot of wood. Dogs are welcome but must be controlled (owner’s responsibility). There is a boat ramp and trailer parking.

Camping cost: $60

The cost is your camping site fee ($50 for the 2 nights) and the VCCCA Club fee ($10) total of $60 - all payable to the VSCCA before the event.

• The VSCCA Club entry fee is a $10 flat fee to cover costs (payable to Club prior to the event).                                                                                                                                 

• The Lake Lyell Recreation Area campsite fee is $50 ($25 per night, payable to Club prior to the event).

• Other costs are paid by entrants at the campground. These include coin-operated showers and BBQ ($1 each) and firewood from the office ($25 per bag).

Payment:

• Payment by EFT into the VSCCA account prior to the event would be appreciated.

• Identify payment with “BM + your name”.

• EFT Details: Vintage Sports Car Club of Australia. BSB 082-443 Account 166670215. Alternatively, pay Phil at the campground.

Intention to Attend

Please send an "intention to attend" to event organiser; Phil Guilfoyle on 0431 503 763 or email philguilfoyle@yahoo.com.au

If your plans change, you can always pull out.
