Welcome to another newsletter and thanks for your kind comments and suggestions.
Michelle White is the latest winner of a free weekend on the Goulburn
River. Michelle's entry came out of the hat on May 10, and she knew that
1860 was the year the ill fated Burke & Wills expedition set off through
the goldfields of central Victoria. This was the first time camels had
been seen in Australia, and caused quite a stir with all the miners.

Canoeing
in the Winter
The winter is a great time in the bush. Nice warm sunny days with a roaring
campfire at night, and best of all, no flies! The rivers are flowing clean
and boldly and the fishing is still quite good. Last weekend a platypus
was sighted in the backwater of Lake Nagambie. Teckwoon from Singapore
was very lucky to see one of these beautiful aquatic creatures in the
wild.
Competition

Thought
for the day
Over heard in the pub the other night.....
"The increasing cost of petrol doesn't worry me...I only ever put 10 bucks
worth in!.." old Jack, and
"A deaf husband and a blind wife make a very happy couple...." another
one of old Jack's.
Mooroopna
Manor
Formally the old hospital and nurses home in Mooroopna is now transformed
into hostel accommodation catering for backpackers and groups visiting
the Green Heart of Victoria. Ideally situated, there is plenty to see
and do around Shepparton for families and visitors. For further information
