kgwilson Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 The Jacaranda Muster is an informal fly-in held each year in conjunction with the world renowned Jacaranda Festival held annually. This year is the 80th anniversary of the festival. More information on the festival can be obtained at jacarandafestival.org.au. There is ample tie down and under wing camping is OK. The clubhouse has recently been re-roofed and re-clad and has a 5 bed bunkhouse available. There are kitchen facilities and a bathroom. As the airfield is right on the edge of town, motels, pubs and shops are all within walking distance. Transport into the city centre will be provided and jerrycans are available for those requiring Mogas. The nearest Avgas is at Lismore or Coffs Harbour A BBQ will operate during the day on Saturday & there will be a Muster Dinner at the Clubhouse on Saturday evening and we are now fully function licenced. On Sunday a Big Breakfast will be served at the clubhouse and around 11:00 am the newly crowned Jacaranda Queen and the other contestants will arrive for their complimentary flights over the city to view the Jacarandas in full bloom from above. The BBQ will operate throughout the day. Visit the website at graftonaeroclub.com for more information on the club and the Muster. By the way there will be no landing fees for the duration of the event. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
