SAILING ON LAKE DUMBLEYUNG
2005's "Unique Experience" of
sailing on Lake Dumbleyung was an overwhelming success.
However, due to a lack of rain throughout the region,
the Lake has dropped to levels that are unsafe to host a
sailing weekend this year. The community are keen
to run this type of event again once the lake has
sufficient water. If you are interested in
participating there is a register of sailors that the
committee keeps in contact with. Please register
your interest with the coordinator Julie Ramm via phone:
(08) 9864 2014 or email:
