MATAMA at the 14th National Rally, Mudgee.

Picture
Most of the club attending the rally...(roughly) from left to right, Neville, Beverly, Rob, Sandy, Melissa, Kate, Rebecca, Mal, Quentin, Denise, John, Brian, Dave, Anne, Graeme, Marlene, Bob, Faye, Nelson, Cooper & Shawna. Also attending but busy elsewhere, were Mike, Maureen, Ruth, Ken, Gabrielle and Frank.
MATAMA was very well represented at the 14th National Rally. Held in Mudgee NSW over the 3 days 19th - 21st April, it was the biggest, and probably the best ever, National Rally.  Hundreds of people stopped by our great display asking lots and lots of questions and MATAMA club-members who attended this awesome event should be very proud of their efforts. Every attending club-member put in a big effort for this special event and it showed.    
Well Done MATAMA.

Considering there was 750+ exhibitors with 2,000+ exhibits and nearly 5kms of fencing, our club members congratulate the organising club, "Cudgegong Valley Antique Machinery Club", for their herculean efforts in organising such a terrific rally.

Below are some images of the rally. The first photos being relevant to our club and the following ones are a very small representation of the rest.
Just click on any of the images below to see it full size.
