State of Origin, Round II
When: 15-16 November 2008
Where: Coffs Harbour, NSW
We have been invited to join our NSW and Queensland colleagues for their State of Origin battle.
From Danny Hall...
On November 15th & 16th, we have at least 15x Canetoads { ten(10x) Blokarters from Brisbane Club & and at least Five(5x) Blokarters from Mackay Club - Far North Queensland } very keen to invade the uninfested northern shores of our state of New South Wales !!
This invasion will be held at Coffs Harbour, and History will know this battle as the "State of Origin - Round II - Coffs Challenge".
For those who missed Round 1 - held back in Feb - it was a great weekend had by all, on the Mid-North coast at Crowdy Head / Harrington.

Unfortunately, we came 2nd in Round 1 - but now we have a chance to have a go and win back our states' pride, ... with very skilled & talented, Land Sailors joining our ranks ...Go the Mighty Blues !!
In order to make the travelling distances fair it was decided to hold Round II at Coffs Harbour which is roughly half-way point Sydney - Brisbane.
The response and enthusiasm from the Canetoads (Queesnslanders) has been overwhelming, at this early stage we already have about 15 Karts heading our way for the Challenge.
This will be a great way to meet & introduce ourselves with our fellow land sailors/blokarters from all over Queensland - especially for anyone attending the Australian Nationals, held up at Yeppoon (near Rockhampton QLD.. coming up in March 09).
So fellow New South Welshmen (& women), ...we are only a fairly new club, ...but we must stand up and be counted ! ... and show these Canetoads (Queenslanders) that we are able to take on this challenge !!
So what I am asking you for - is a show of hands ! ! .. who is keen to protect our very shores from this Canetoad invasion in November ??
NSW residents keen to defend our home state from this invasion .... let us Know your intentions and reply today !!
United ... we must stand !
...so how would it be if us ‘Mexicans’ went up there and took the prize?
