As the host club we require lots of volunteers to run this event safely and smoothly. Please put your hand up to be involved by emailing octc@octc.org.au or the TryBooking link below. Its a huge weekend and we need all hands on deck to make it a safe and successful weekend.
This event also serves as our major fundraiser activity for the club so that we can keep club membership prices low – for one weekend it is a lot of work but more manageable than weekly meat raffles at the pub.
Please help out if you can. You can nominate for a few hours, all morning or afternoon, or all weekend.
