Hi Lads

I can confirm the following - Bundaberg OPM will be held on Saturday 4 June and Sunday 5 June.

All classes to the shot as per past year. Ranges are Saturday 300, 500, 600 and 600 - 10 + 2 and Sunday is 800 and 900 - 15 + 2.

Dinner BBQ Friday night and Spit on Saturday night with a few extras to go with - possibly some soup and likely a cheesecake or two!! Taking requests now in fact. I'll also do breakfast on Saturday and Sunday morning.

Flyer will be posted to QRA site soon.

Get people together and let me know whether you're coming for catering purposes.

Look forward to seeing you all again in Bundaberg.

Cheers

Andrew

Hi Graham

I'm onto it for you. I'm looking for something where at the end of the day you can take slow walks along the beach and sit on the deck watching the magically scenes of gentle waves crashing onto the beach while you sip at your chilled Chardy and listen to your favourite Barry Manilow tunes.......

I'll give you a call once I have something worth while in terms of place.

Range is looking a treat again this year. Can't ensure those nice gentle conditions we have been getting for the last few years but regardless we'll try to put on a reasonable show for everyone.

Cheers

Andrew

I'm hoping that the gate will be open on Friday as well. That way I won't get in trouble for jumping the fence. haha.

Hi Guys

Fence and gate to be open as we expect people to start filing in in the next day or two.

Range is looking really good and don't stress about the weather forecast - this is Bundaberg - the last lot of rain we had it flooded the entire town!!!!!

Food line up is looking to be a step up from last year.

Already had some people confirm they are coming and the competition should be pretty good across the board.

Look forward to seeing you all on Friday night or Saturday morning depending on your travel arrangements.

Cheers

Andrew

Hoping to get there sometime late Friday. It's gong to be a bit of a rush job (loading Friday morning then jump in the car), but sounds like it will be worth the effort.

Unbelievable, the beautiful weather we've been having and as soon as Bundy OPM comes along there's one strip of dodgy weather in Australia..... over Bundaberg. Please hold out weather [-o<

It'll be magnificent again until Thursday 16th June. :(

Hi all

Weather forecast is looking at showers for Saturday and fine Sunday. The shoot is still on and people will be arriving from today.

Definitely pack some wet weather shooting gear in case. Range is in great order so easy to move around.

Looking forward to seeing what you have devised for wet conditions Denis.

See you all soon.

Cheers Andrew
