Help! Me & the Mrs. cannot find any accommodation for robe easter weekend- all caravan parks & hotels booked out. What are others doing? Will anyone share a campsite or unit (we'll split costs of course)? or what's the go for camping in the national park? We're cool to do the tent thing. One car, One tent, One

Just think, in two weeks time on this nice Sunday morning, you will just be waking up after the 2nd night of mad partying, Friday night, the 3rd Ramp car park Party, brought to you by Coopers and Red bull, and then the Saturday night at the Robe pub, with two many shoots and watching stewie make a new name for him self for this year.. (“Don't you know you I am” stewie yells.) Bring on the laughs.
Then this morning you are about to go and get wet again, for the 3rd day in row.. To back it all up again On the Sunday night at the Robe Bowls club for prezz'os. Just lucky Monday is rest day..
Hey guys, just letting you know that the Onboard team are looking after your safety..
We have once again confirmed a 6 Seater Taxi bus to transport you from Robe township to 3rd Ramp for the Friday night Coppers/ Red Bull Car park Party. For $20 total each way, its a good safe way to get from Robe to the party and back again.. For $6.66 each ( for 6 people), thats a great cheap night out...
It will be picking up from the Celebration Bottle shop from 7pm and if you talk nice to the driver, they might even drop you off at your door at the end of the night..
So not many days to go now...
Have to be stoked.. 5 days to go to the start of the 2010 Robe Easter Classic..
In this early stages, the weather is looking great for the event, increasing swell and forecast SE winds, with a day temp of 24C and not much chance of rain..
So get you washing done, check you gear, 5 days will not take long to pass..
I think I'll be heading over this Robe this weekend. Ive never done a windsurfing competition. How does it work? do we have to be members or have sail numbers? Can we enter when we get there?
Thanks
its a pretty casual comp. run as expression session. no sail numbers required. pretty sure you can enter on friday morning and i belive state windsurfing afiliation is required?? member of windsurf SA or VIC i think. will catch you there!! its the best weekend of the year!
