OK. have checked the NSW Dep of Education site that sets the school terms dates. It states that it is the 14th with a note that it is "yet to be proclaimed"

also here http://www.industrialrelations.nsw.gov. ... idays.html
it says 14th "yet to be proclaimed"

Jury is still out... :roll: :?

I was probably told in School, but didn't care about it, But now the NATS are on in that weekend it all changes the whole Queen thingy issue....I now love the Queen. :wink:

Is the FB/EK Nationals officially the 12th, 13th & 14th of June 2010??

http://solutionsindata.com/public_holid ... eekend.htm

I know there are suggestions that it is but nothing definate from what I can see in this thread.....then again my eye sight is "average" :roll: .

Can the NSW club please confirm "Officially" so us long distance FB/EKer's can start booking leave, book accomodation, planning the route .........etc..

The Finke Desert Race is on the same weekend and the following weekend is the V8 Supercars in Darwin, these will have a large impact on how many FB/EK's we can get to travel in convoy from Darwin as a number of them are involved in these events (including myself in the V8's)........ hence the need for confirmation of the 2010 Nationals dates. :D
