Teddie’s Terrific Tour to Katanning Western Australia – CITIN 2019.
For those folks who would like to have a bit of fun and enjoyment before CITIN 2019, we are inviting you to join us on “Teddie’s Terrific Tour”, to be held over 14 days and nights.
We are starting out from Melbourne and finishing up at Katanning.
Each day is planned to be doing some interesting things and seeing new places, as well as cementing friendships over shared morning tea and lunch each day, pre-dinner drinks, and dinners each evening.
There is no actual cost involved to be part of the group, but some extra excursions along the way will attract a modest amount of money.
Interstate people from all states (as well as Victoria) are most welcome to join us along the way.
We are suggesting some accommodation, but you are welcome to arrange your own accommodation.
At quite a few places we are staying in country pubs and hotels, and some caravan parks with cabins.
You will need to book your own accommodation – I have let places know that people may ring to book – please mention that you are part of the Citroen car group.
At the time of writing, accommodation was available at the suggested venues.
I strongly suggest that you book it ASAP.
If you are interested in being part of the tour group, please contact the organising crew ASAP – Ted and Helen Cross
