As there is no Millmerran CO Fetival this year the Kingsthorpe Hotel are thinking of organising an alternative for people who are getting the twitches.
What I need to know is if this clashes with anything, date not set just October.

10kms, turn right at Zimms Corner service station on your left and 2km to Kingsthorpe = 15 minutes from Toowoomba.

Visit the Penthouse and send the big one to Kingsthorpe, so everyone will be happy. Negotiate!

Sadly I was advised today by the Gowrie Hotel Kingsthorpe Publican that they have deferred this event to a future date.
The school has a big Pro-Rodeo on Saturday and the pub are running the bar.
The Pub darts team are holding an end of season break-up dinner at the Pub Saturday night.
Seems that all the Kingsthorpe camp oven cooks (see last event pictures) are helping to pack up all the Rodeo shutes and  fencing on Sunday.
The Pub will be dismantling the bar on Sunday.
It is all too much happening at once and they cannot cope with another event the same weekend Lynne said.

The upside is (I did not realise) it is BATHURST!
So might get a pot going while the race is on.
