The annual Worm-Drive Weekend is on 11-13 September at Cobram on the mighty Murray River. Accommodation will be at the RACV Resort on the outskirts of Cobram. The resort has every type of accommodation from camping sites to luxury apartments. Then there is the cafe, swimming pool, tennis courts and even a basketball court for those wishing to throw a hoop or two. RACV roadside assist members receive a generous discount, as do members of interstate motor groups (NMRA, RACQ, RACT etc). Prices for the resort start at $99 per night for two in a standard cabin, with a minimum stay of two nights. See below for more information. The only downside is that there is a minimum stay of two nights. If this doesn’t suit we suggest you try the Charles Sturt Motor Inn, which is only a short drive from the resort. There will be the usual 5.04s at the resort on the Friday and Saturday nights. As we are celebrating the 60th anniversary of the 403 and everyone has to travel a good distance there have not been any long runs organised, instead there will be several suggestions for local runs you can take if you so wish. Also, the local paddlesteamer, Cobba, will be cruising on the Saturday for those who wish to take to the water and see the Murray from a different view. Friday dinner is not planned, but those who are there can decide where to eat. The Saturday night meal will be at a local hotel. Pay for your own meal and drinks. On the Sunday we will have the usual photo shoot and then a drive to a lunch spot from where you can then head home or return to Cobram. The fee for the weekend is $20 per head, which covers 5.04s and trophies. All meals are at your own cost.
