Hi Steve,

This info is from the website ...
Stall sites will be available at the OLD COURT HOUSE  space will be available inside the court house and within  the grounds. For more information Phone Ann 0467 965 833

Book in and Pay for Field Trips and Lunch at the "OLD COURT HOUSE" Glen Innes Rd from 7am each morning.
Breakfast will be available for purchase each morning from 7am. at the Court House
Reading that info I'd say tailgaters would also be open from 7am but check with Anne to be sure. I'll also give her a call tomorrow to verify & post here.

I just spoke to Anne. If tailgaters want to set up on Friday they can trade anytime they wish even on Friday night. As people will be getting there at 7 am each day they can trade from there & also when the trips return.
There are still plenty of places available so if you know anyone wishing to have a table get them to contact Anne & book a spot.

For anyone in the area on that weekend for Emmaville Show, some may be interested in a garage sale on that weekend in Glen Innes which has advertised as some lapidary gear including a diamond saw and camping equipment.


25 Hunter St, Glen Innes. Sale runs 3rd to 5th October.


Dont know any more about it - just read it in the paper and posting for anyone who might be interested.


cheers
