Seymour has an approximate populations of around 6000 and this is supplemented by the Puckapunyal army base which is located about five minutes out of town. It’s a common sight to see the army trucks trundling through and of course men and women in uniform. Very much a part of life in Seymour.
Seymour was established in 1839 and is an important rail hub for the Sydney to Melbourne railway and also the Goulburn Valley railway. Trains run to Melbourne every hour from Seymour, making the city very accessible as far as working is concerned.

The shopping in Seymour is pretty good for a rural town as well. You will find Target Country, Millers, Woolworths and Aldi and IGA in the town and fast food outlets McDonalds, KFC and La PorcheAa, as well as several Indian restaurants, Chinese restaurants and coffee shops
Seymour also has very good accommodation available with three motels, two caravan parks and various Bed & Breakfast locations available. As well there are three hotels ( one a bistro in the main street) that offer a lovely choice of meals.
Seymour also has two large medical clinics and a hospital that has a 24hour after hours service.. should you be unfortunate enough to need it.
To attend the ANCRI/NCRC extravaganza you will be heading to Kings Park: To do this, if you are coming FROM the south, you will turn Right at TALLAROOK St.. travel a short distance up the road and you will find the large park ( which comprises the football ground) on your right. From there you will see the large green shed which is your destination.
To come FROM the north, you will obviously turn left into Tallarook St and then follow the directions to Kings Park.
Be warned.. in March our weather is very unpredictable. It might be hot.. or it might be temperate, or it could be quite cool ( not cold), so pack a bit of everything. USUALLY the weather in late March is starting to cool down, so it should be very pleasant. However we do get years where it’s still pretty warm in late March.
This is just a very brief summary of the town. Those of us that live in the district hope that you enjoy your stay.
