What is going to happen for the 2014 Bargara Beach Campout? This year, our event coincides with the October long weekend so we have tried to have a relaxed but packed agenda for our event. We are still finalising the exact details however to give you all a taste of what is in store, here is a brief snapshot of what is on offer at our event:- Friday Registration, free time for sunset/night cruise and official "Meet n Greet BBQ" Saturday Breakfast, Garage Crawl (includes man caves and cars in the build) and ASRF DC meeting at our new clubhouse with catered dinner at Bargara Saturday night including live entertainment provided by Crossfire. This years theme for this year is the letter "B". Come to the Saturday night dinner dressed or associated with the letter B! (I'll leave this to your imagination!). Sunday Breakfast, Public Car Show and Rocker Cover challenge followed by free time Sunday afternoon to enjoy the lifestyle Bargara gas to offer. Sunday evening will conclude with a unique "Movies at the Beach". Monday Continental breakfast, check everything, pack up and depart. Rum City Rocker Cover Racing Challenge Our Rocker Cover Racing Challenge last year was organised on pretty short notice. However, we are giving plenty of notice to those who wish to explore their creativity and competitive streak for this years campout.
