Media Release:

The Mackay branch of Australian Caravan Club, Sugar City Pioneers, will be holding a Muster on the 6 -9 June 2025 at the Sarina Showgrounds. The Muster will celebrate the ten (10) year anniversary of the formation of the Branch, which took place at the Showgrounds.

With many of the original members once again returning for the Muster, the branch has grown from eight caravans to become one of the largest branches within the Club with 41 caravans.

The branch members have worked hard promoting the Branch and the Australian Caravan Club, with members receiving the Club’s Service Award.

A birthday cake will be the centre of attention on Sunday 8 June, when the inaugural Committee will cut the cake. Many “tall tales” will be told over the weekend of the adventures the Branch has had, from travelling along the Birdsville Track to the Musters held up and down the coast.
