]]> On Saturday 23rd February, Goat Rock hosted a camp oven dinner as a finale to the annual Canadian visit to Texas. Our visitors toured the Whyalla Feedlot, Silver Mine, and local agricultural enterprise owned by the Coventry family. They also had time to wander around and sample the views of Texas.

Before going to Goat Rock, they had a hands on experience with sheep shearing and wool handling at the Croft’s wool shed. Locals joined the group for a fantastic three course camp oven dinner, bush poetry by Jim Brown and music by The Rabbit Trappers. The Texas State School P&C benefited from a charity auction of Australian and Canadian items. An enjoyable and fun night was had by all, with the Canadians vowing to return next year.
