Petition - Military Superannuation Pensions

Below is a link to a petition being put forward by Senator Steve Fielding on the issue of the gross unfairness of the current indexation arrangements for Military Superannuation Pensions.
It would be great if we could get as many people to sign up as possible. Unfortunately, it seems the only way the government will listen is if we actually prove to them how many people are angry by their shameful inaction on this issue.

Boyds Bay Holiday Park

G'day all,

Angela and I had the pleasure of spending a few days at "Boyds Bay Holiday Park' last week. We thought we might check out the facilities first hand. I must say we were very impressed with the whole layout

The photo above is where the large marquee will be erected, the Caravan sites are on the left on the higher ground.

These are the Cabins down by the private beach and picnic grounds

Camp kitchen situated near our marquee and caravan sites.

Toilet and shower block. There are four of these around the park so you don't have far to go when required.

They were spotless during our visit.

Boat and Car wash point with a fish cleaning area.

Cabins near the enterance to the Park. Once again they were spotless and will equiped.

Private boat ramp onto the Tweed river for our fisherman.

Private beach and picnic area.

If you have any particular queations regarding the park please contact me and I will do my best to help. In all I think we can look forward to a great reunion. If you all remember I wanted to run the reunion at Bribie Island, however I think we made the right decision to hold it here.
