= Bus Trip Back in Time – “Burnima” Homestead and Early Delegate  =

 (NOTE: This trip is currently fully booked. You can join a Waiting List by going to the [|Bookings] link below and following the instructions, or by contacting Ian)

Join us on a bus trip exploring the early history of the southern Monaro. We visit historic “[|Burnima]” Homestead for morning Devonshire tea and an escorted tour of the house, built in 1896 and furnished faithfully in the style of the period, and the gardens which should be in full Autumn splendour.

We then head for Delegate and the School of Arts Museum (the starting point for the “Men from Snowy River” recruitment march during WW1), where we will have lunch catered by a local community group. After lunch we adjourn to the nearby Borderline and [|Bundian Way Indigenous Galleries], and finish the day with a visit to one of the earliest buildings on the Monaro, the Delegate [|Early Settlers Hut] (1840's) for damper and billy tea. There will be local guides on hand to help us experience the past.
