This is very much a living idea, so many ideas would be great & help organising this on the ground when the date gets closer.

An outline of my thoughts are to start of with a cruise up the Old Pacific HWY & onto the F3 into Swansea (sth of Newcastle), there is a private picnic / camping ground on the shores of lake macquarie that can easily handle a large group of day trippers & small groups of campers.
Some may know of this place as Bargoed House.

Facilitys of the grounds are:

A large oval, to let the kids & big kids run around, play ball etc
many BBQ,s gas & wood
toilets /showers
canoes
boat ramp
tennis court
mini putt
swings, slippery dips, merry go round etc
& in the event of wet weather there is a Hall to keep dry

I can also have a small group of campers stay the night, & the cost for camping is very cheap.

I'm thinking early December to beat some party's & I'm not available most of November.

Post up your thoughts for the day

The weekend of the 13th and 14th would suit me fine
