This is Stargard, our members only observing field.
We sometimes refer to it as Stargard 1 (SG1), as there is another location within the same sporting complex which we call Stargard 2 (SG2), which we utilise for public nights or when SG1 is too boggy.
Getting There
Please arrive well before sunset. Members only. Social distancing and masks please.
Heading along Burragorang Road from Camden, about 800 metres past The Oaks roundabout, you will see a mobile phone tower and the Rural Fire Service on the left. Turn left and the main gate to the Sports Ground will be directly ahead, to the right of the image below.
When you drive through the main gate please close it and slide the bolt without locking unless other groups are present.
Once inside the main gate, turn immediate left and follow the track around the left side of the sports field to gate 2 on your left at the far end of that road. Go through gate 2, down the slope and then through gate 3 over the narrow bridge straddling the creek. You’ll see us setting up our gear straight ahead.
If the front gate has been locked by another group, you will have to walk about 400 metres to find us in the third field.
For first time visitors, here is a dash-cam video which shows the route between Burragorang Road and the observing field, co-starring (in order of appearance): Tony Law, Roger Powell and Dave Manning.
When departing at night, drive slowly and watch carefully for the resident wombats and other wild life.
