Hi All

well it's early days yet, but we thought that we would put up some info about this years Toranafest.

The date for this year is the 15/16 September 2012.

The theme for this year is "The Giant Killers" and our focus will be on the "Little General". Especially that great win by none other than PB in 1972. Hard to believe that it's been 40 years!

As we get more info, we will post it and keep you updated.

We can say that will be working hard to make it another memorable year and we hope to see you all there again!



cheers
Mick
Toranafest Coordinator

Perhaps the HVTC could try and coincide an LC-LJ nationals at this years event. It would promote this years theme really well. Non the less, us LH-LX boys will attend in numbers again to keep the smaller torry's honest :D

Sounds great, Bris/Newcastle/Bris road trip, then 3 weeks later Bris/Bathurst/Bris, lots of miles in a short space of time, will have put some thought into this.

Terry, the proceedure to invite a VIP is simple. Lure them in with promises of beer, dancing girls and party pies. By VIP I assume you mean Very Intoxicated Person, in which case both DJ and I are already there but Im sure I can round up a few more for you if you wish.
