The Great Milk Carton challenge has been run and done. Weather was a bit damp on the Saturday which kept visitor numbers down a bit but Sunday made up for it.
We had entries made by models aged from 3 to 67. They all did a great job. So much so it will be on again at next years rally.

All of the above models were free sailing. Some wind, one electric powered and one rubber band powered.
This next lot had radio control and were electric powered.

Our pool all ready to go on Saturday. The organizers of the Lake Goldsmith rally let us borrow their model boat pool. The pool will be back at Lake Goldsmith in time for their 123rd rally on May 4th and 5th. Details at https://www.lakegoldsmithsteamrally.org.au/
