Big River Nationals - In Review Graham Matthews - Event Co-ordinator Final Media Release -
Winners List Sponsors List
Congratulations to South Australia - ASRF
Big River Nationals have been a huge success with higher than expected entrant numbers
and way above all expectations for public attendance on both the Saturday and Sunday.
What a fantastic event! The organisation and planning and implementation for the Big
River Nationals has been so very professional.
South Australia Graham Matthews (Event Co-ordinator) dared to be different and stated
the case to move the event dates from the traditional Easter week end to the week end
after Easter and thanks to this move South Australia have a huge attendance and financial
success on their hands.
To Graham Matthews; Heiner Gossert; John McLean; Scott and John Johncock; Dave Werhman
and the whole BRN committee; wives; family and friends and volunteers, on behalf of the
ASRF and the members we thank you for your professionalism and hospitality. What a fantastic event.
To the Sponsors who supported the Big River Nationals we thank you, for without your
backing we could not have staged such a relaxed and successful event.
