Club Outing, Coromandel Valley, Sunday 18th May, 2 pm

Meet in the small shopping centre car park, corner of Main Road and Oakdene Crescent. Taking camera, tripod, etc, walk across Main Road and follow paths along Sturt River Linear Park. The track to the right leads to, and just beyond Winn's Road. Cross Winn's Road and have a look at the historic Winn's Bakery. It will be open from 2-4pm - cost $2 entry fee. The track hits private property just beyond the old bakery. The track to the left also meanders along the Sturt River (really just a babbling brook) until opening out in a park near Shepherd Court. It is all easy walking, but wear good walking shoes/boots and be prepared to photograph small cascades and creek scenes. Allow at least 1 1/2 hours to do both left and right paths and perhaps retire to Rimini's at Blackwood's Magnet Shopping Centre on Coromandel Parade for coffee.

The weather forcast is for a few showers on Sunday, so take a rain jacket just in case.
