AJ Generally, scrutineering is held in the square on the friday .... generally from between 12.00pm on till about 4ish.. then they do a parade back to the track. Shopping.. cant remember what its like up there nowadays, but apparently big changes in the plaza, so may be able to find a "roast" there |

These days I direct the broom pushing....Gotta love Corporate America. Is there still a go-kart track in Palmy?  Just did the count back, and heck its been 14yrs since I was last at Palmy teams....Am thinking a thing or two has probably changed a little. AJ |

AJ Last I knew the track was still running up in Bennett Street .... bit of a hike from central Palmy, but my memory serves me well, there are buses that go near there |

Go to sunday Roast highly recommend it , if ya a normal eater get a small if not a medium if you could eat a whole horse get a large but small at $11.00 is good value..usually they do scrutineering in the square on the friday so don't see why that would change this year

Yes, they have done scruitineering in the square 2 out of the last 3 years, but did have scuitineering behind the council building one year, closed off Church St, but there was a big lack of space... hence is why they ask to do it in the Square, and more public see it there as well
