18.01.2022 A Cs s State Government Direction: Closure of Caravan Parks Hi everyone,... Please see advice just received from the Victorian State Government. INFORMATION FOR CARAVAN PARK AND CAMPING GROUND OWNERS AND OPERATORS ON CORONAVIRUS (COVID-19) At the direction of the Chief Health Officer Victoria campsites, caravan parks and camping grounds will now be closed to visitors. This will be effective from 11.59pm (local time) 25 March 2020. The only people permitted to remain will be: People who already have the caravan park registered as their primary place of residence; and People staying in caravan parks as interim accommodation where their primary residence is not available (including those of no fixed address and people placed in emergency housing by DHHS). These actions follow further restrictions on domestic and international travel, with all non-essential travel banned. Compliance with this directive is enforceable under the section 203 of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008 and penalties apply. It is important to reduce the risk of infection and slow the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) in the Victorian community. Compliance with new rules Inspections will occur after this date to ensure that campsites, caravan parks and camping grounds are compliant. Inspections will be carried out by DELWP and Parks Victoria staff and Local Government authorised officers over the coming weeks. If caravan parks and camping grounds operators fail to comply following this, the Victoria Police will be contacted. Persons wishing to retrieve belongings from closed caravan parks and camping grounds will need to contact the land manager/operator who will stage retrieval to ensure compliance with Mass Gathering Directions and social distancing. Signage should be displayed at the road entrances and on main buildings indicating that the park or camping ground is closed. We appreciate your support with implementing these new arrangements.

18.01.2022 MOLESWORTH RECREATION RESERVE CLOSURE FROM 5:00PM THE 20TH MARCH 2020 DUE TO THE Coronavirus (COVID-19) Due to the ongoing issues regarding the Coronavirus the decision has been made by the majority of the Molesworth Recreation Reserve Committee of Management that the park will be closed to Annual site holders and casual campers as from 5:00pm Friday 20th March 2020 until further notice.... This decision has not been taken lightly, but we believe this to be the right decision in our current circumstances. Some people may see this as overkill and we have plenty of space but we must all remember that we all share the same ablutions block and that the virus can stay on surfaces for an extended period of time. The caretakers will remain in residence at the park for security reasons, annuals who require access to their vans to remove possessions and/or food stuffs are required to make prior arrangements with the Caretakers on 03 5797 6278, This is a decision by the committee, as the caretakers have nothing to do with this decision any abuse directed towards them will not be tolerated. We sincerely hope we have the backing and understanding from our park family in this decision. Molesworth Recreation Reserve Committee of Management

17.01.2022 Looking forward to the start of the fishing season why not join in the festival.

16.01.2022 The fish have been released.

14.01.2022 The river is low and the deer have returned.

13.01.2022 The stonkers have been released into the Goulburn River at Molesworth today! Not long till Saturday when you can catch them for yourself. Jaclyn Symes MP ...and volunteers helped us stock 90 of these beauties this morning. Some of them weighed a whopping 5kg!!! 1,500 massive rainbows are being released into the Goulburn River - just in time for trout opening in rivers! Plus 500 into the Eildon Pondage! Molesworth is the last stop on the rainbow road. Check out the map that shows all the stonker stocking locations: https://vfa.vic.gov.au//Goulburn-Trout-Opening-VFM-artwork #target1million #goulburnfishingfest #icaughtastonker VRFish Murrindindi Shire Council Goulburn Broken CMA #JaclynSymes #JaclynSymesMP

12.01.2022 Its sad that people are not getting the message, it is pretty loud and clear, stay home, isolate and this virus will be beaten, go out into the community the virus spreads and many more friends, family and loved ones suffer and probably succumb to this insidious attack on humanity. Stay home, stay safe.

12.01.2022 Come camping at Molesworth Caravan and Camping Park and discover Molesworth and its surrounds.

11.01.2022 Thinking of somewhere to go during the upcoming school holidays, come to Molesworth Recreation Camping and Caravan Park and enjoy sometime with the family camping and sitting by a campfire (on days when there are no fire restrictions) enjoying some family time together. Contact the caretakers on 03 5797 6278 for any enquires or visit our online web enquiry page, fill out the details and the caretakers will call you back. http://www.molesworthreserve.com.au/contact.php

10.01.2022 Its sad when people steal the very things that are essential to saving theirs and other peoples lives and properties and even more so in a time of high fire danger. These volunteers work tirelessly to first of all raise the funds to get this equipment and give up their time and efforts to keep everyone safe. SHARE THE HELL OUT OF THIS POST

09.01.2022 What a great Australia Day weekend, park full of campers enjoying the wonderful weather, we had it all, hot/warm days, cool nights, a nice drop of overnight rain to freshen everything up and beautiful sunsets. We thank the campers for their thoughtfulness towards other campers and adhering to the park rules. We also thank the campers for their patience as we had and still have issues with one phase of our power supply and had to jerry rig power for the shower block hot water... service. Our apologies, always seems to happen at the most inappropriate times, that the camp kitchen and power sites were without power and only one of the electric BBQs was working. The issue will be rectified this week, our electrician and Ausnet power have to be onsite to do the repairs. Once again a big thank you to all our campers for their understanding.

06.01.2022 NO BOATING. NO FISHING. No fishing is allowed, either from the bank or from a boat. It is not one of the reasons for which people can leave the house.
