Hi Everyone,
This was in the local Goulburn Paper Today:
Utes ready to roll
By DAVID COLE
PREPARATIONS for the first Australia Day Ute Muster in Goulburn are revving up, with everything "ready to roll" pending council approval.
The event, to be held on next year's Australia Day weekend, is expected to attract over 2000 people a day to the Goulburn Recreation Area.
Organiser and president of the Goulburn and District Tourism Association Frank Wilcomes hopes it will become an annual event, cementing Goulburn's growing reputation as a motoring events city. The Ute Muster will feature entertainment over the three days including James Blundell, the Sunny Cowgirls, Jester, Jetty Road, Kirsty Lee Akers and the Garth Brooks Tribute Band.
There will also be a Trade Fair, Ute Queen competition, a karaoke talent quest, as well as bush poets. The 'Whip Cracking Sheilas' will also give demonstrations over the weekend.
For ute aficionados there will be a traders afternoon on Saturday and a Show and Shine competition.
Also on display will be the Ute of the Year from the last Deniliquin Ute Muster.
Bar facilities and food will be provided by the Goulburn Greyhound Club in the concourse.
Mr Wilcomes said the RAAF Roulettes acrobatic team had also been booked to fly overhead.
"It's all ready to roll, subject to final council approval," Mr Wilcomes said.
He said there would be about 300 campers with utes staying at the Recreation Area and he expected up to 2000 spectators a day.
Mr Wilcomes said the Ute Muster would be something new for Goulburn. "It will bring new people and new dollars into the town," he said.
Mr Wilcomes has been involved in Canberra's SummerNats for the past 14 years as well as the Sydney Car Show and was a member of the organising committee of the spectacular Street Rod Nationals in Goulburn at Easter last year.
He said Goulburn could become known as a motoring events centre.
"We have Wakefield Park, we had the first Grand Prix here in 1922 and they were going to establish a road circuit around Rocky Hill, but it went to Bathurst instead," he said.
Mr Wilcomes said early bird tickets were available from mid November to end of December from the website.
Contact Mr Wilcomes on 0409 123 396 or visit australia-dayutemuster.com.au.
O slight concern is ""It's all ready to roll, subject to final council approval," Mr Wilcomes said."
