This is a great deal, good to see them trying something new. The food is great at the bistro, I have had many meals there. Very tempting !
Don't die wondering !
Come on people - we have to make this happen!Originally Posted by gutwagon
We need a few (couples?) to convince a another couple to join them on this incredible value weekend and a good time will be had by all!
They need to know these numbers by Monday - so organize yourself over the weekend and decide "Yes, let's do it!"
I already live here but if another club was running such an offer I would be there with bells on

Sadly there is not much interest/money around in harness racing nowadays when this type of offer cannot get off the ground

I think the fact that most people would have to take the Monday off work killed the offer. Just running a bus there and back on the Sunday would have been a better idea in my opinion .

It was a good idea Kev but as Rick said perhaps two days was a bit much right off the bat. Maybe there’s time to rethink the idea as a one day trip and I think having a host to entertain and inform on the trip and track might help.
That's a bit sad Kev. Considering it's $149 for a room (off peak) at Tabcorp Park for the night it would have to have been the best value trip ever.
