Pajero 4WD Club of Victoria Inc
MUSTER 98
The Pajero 4WD Club of Victoria, with the support of Mitsubishi Motors Australia, is organising the inaugural Muster, which will be an interclub event.
- The Pajero 4WD Club of Victoria, hopes that the four Mitsubishi 4WD Clubs from around Australia will take turns and run a national event in the years to follow.
- Our invitation is for Mitsubishi 4WD Clubs from all over Australia to attend the Muster 1998. The event is open to all Club Members and vehicles whatever 4WD vehicle make and model.
Where & when
The Muster will be held during Easter at Marysville, an important town and tourist destination in the Murrindindi Shire. It is situated 100 km north east of Melbourne in the Great Dividing Range. The area boasts some of Victoria's most picturesque and interesting 4 wheel drive areas, the Yarra Ranges National Park, and is the gateway to some of the best snow season playgrounds.
Friday, April 1Oth, will be our set up day, and we encourage Club Members to arrive on Friday to set up camp, spend time exploring the town, do some local sight seeing and relax.
Accommodation
A wide variety of accommodation is available, but we must stress that everyone should finalise their arrangements as soon as possible as accommodation in and around Marysville is booking out quickly for Easter.
The Marysville Caravan Park which is located very close to the Gallipoli Park oval, has comprehensive facilities but is booking out quickly, so you are advised not to delay your booking for this particular venue.
Bush camping
Please note, a bush camp site will be available for exclusive use by Club Members, and port-a-loos will be supplied. BYO water. (For a small fee campers can use the shower blocks at Marysville Caravan Park.)
