The Bothwell SPINin is held in the Bothwell District School's Gymnasium and grounds. The Draft Program gives some insight into what is in store for SPINin visitors in 2007. Aside from The SPINin it is envisaged that there will be a range of side events in the township.

Bothwell is the home of Golf in Australia. On Saturday 3rd March there will be a GOLF TOURNAMENT for people attending the SPINin and/or their partners at Australia’s Oldest Golf Course at Ratho in Bothwell. More details later as they become available

Bothwell is also renowned for the deer hunting and trout fishing available in the district. These activities attract many people to the region and are important to Bothwell as a tourism destination. Traditionally the first weekend in March – The SPINin weekend is the opening of the deer hunting season in Tasmania and Bothwell is an important area for hunters to gather.

The SPINin Committee is working with local groups to coordinate SPINoff events, exhibitions and displays in the township aimed at increasing the opportunities available for SPINin visitors and to help them plan their visit to Bothwell. It is hoped that by October 2006 it will be possible to confirm some of these activities and list them on this page as details become available.

A tour of Historic Bothwell has been planned and depending upon demand there may be other tours leaving Bothwell during and after The SPINin weekend. Details will be placed on this page when they become available

Before and after The SPINin Weekend it is planned that there will be workshops of various kinds and focusing on various things to do with textile techniques and studio production. It is planned that by October 2006 it will be possible to confirm most if not all of these workshops and list them on this page as details become available. The SPINin Guests will lead many of these workshops.
