"One Dream One Team" Trip Leaders Trip
(Weekend Trip Leaders Trip)
Sat 1 - Sun 2 March, 2025
Trip Leaders - Anita & Warren Sprigg
Trip Leaders, it's time to get to know each other, Anita and I have only been with the club a relatively short time, the monthly meeting is unachievable for us now with Melbourne's traffic. Apparently there are over 40 trip leaders new and old. So to other new trip leaders, get on board, meet some others TL's, more experienced or new it does not matter. The idea is to meet and chat.his is a one-day trip I got from the '4WD Treks Close to Melbourne'.
We meet on Friday night at the Licola Caravan Park for happy hour if possible. It is daylight saving so that this should be achievable. On Saturday we will be heading out up the butcher country track and down Zeka spur track, find a campsite, set up and settle down hopefully for a evening of chat around the campfire. BBQ tea or whatever you fancy.e will be travelling from Narbethong to Marysville or the opposite.
