Coming to Karumba is worthwhile not only to do fishing but also do lots of activities in Karumba
MAY 22nd , 2017
From the Managers
Welcome to this week’s edition of the Load of Croc. Gee it was great to see the rain fall down last Thursday. It certainly helps with our gardens and trees that we are trying to get growing here. It settles the dust and washes our cars as well. Yes it makes it a bit boggy but there is always the other side of the coin to think about.
The Farmers. It wasn’t long back last year when North West Queensland was in severe drought where scores of cattle had to be put down and some farmers even took their own life due to how desperate things had got. Something to think about….

Your Site area usage
Your Powered Site is designed to be able to take your van beside the slab (if you have one) and the boat up the side. You will need to look at your site and make sure that you are making the usage of your area properly. I am seeing problems such as congestion that will occur if site space is not utilised efficiently. Even if I have spoken to you, look again as I will need to come back to you. I am looking for co-operation on this issue so please assist. Thanks

Sunset Bingo is awesome!!!!!!

Art and Craft
Art and Craft is on Thursday afternoons from 1pm with free coffee, tea and biscuits provided.
Site Privacy
As we are getting busier I think it is very important to respect each others privacy be it short or long term clients. Roadways are not only for cars but for pedestrians as well. Use these roadways to make your way around the park, there are plenty of them. Don’t walk through other people’s site as it is not respectful to do so.
Thank you.
70’s Disco Charity Night
On June 30 we are holding a 70’s Disco Night to raise money for the Cancer Council. Dress up in your best 70’s disco gear with prizes given out to the best dressed of the night. This will be judged from a panel of “expert” judges. The cover charge is a minimum $5.00 which will be the donation toward the Cancer Council. We will now need to take bookings for this function so please do so at reception as soon as possible.

He completed his national service as a drummer for the army big band and has formed numerous bands in Adelaide, Sydney and the Central Coast. Bruce also is a vocalist and will perform live on these two Wednesday nights for us here at the Sunset Caravan Park.
Entertainment Area

Speed of vehicles
It is very important that all vehicles observe the walking pace speed limit that we have in place here in the park. We have this to protect everybody safety including kids that ride around on their bikes. It also reduces the dust emissions that come from a moving vehicle.
SAFETY FIRST FOR EVERYBODY.
