Yes, unfortunately it is the same weekend. We tried to work out a way not to clash. The only other possibility was in September which I have since found out would have clashed with an ASV party at Heathcote anyway.
I have spoken to Fraser who is (I understand) the main organiser of the Nhill party to explain and he is OK with it, and was appreciative of the heads up.
Going forward, obviously we hope to not clash with other events but with the number of events on in Vic these days (ASV has 3 Star Parties a year with Messier, Galactic Centre and Star BQ at Heathcote as well as Nhill,then there is Border Stargaze, which is not technically in Vic, but close enough plus 2 SV camps) and with winter being what it is in these Southern climes, some clashes are inevitable.
I know this will disappoint some who would like to go to both but it does happen.
Cheers
Malcolm
