convoy for sids and kids wa
We will see how Lordy goes with it.
A guy was trying to set up a national sids for kids run a few months ago I think they pulled it off but I beleive it was hard work for him.
I didn't go on that run but would have liked to.
that was james brooks from newcastle first started the idea.
he led a run in the hunter region and it did pretty well. i think they raised around 5 grand with about 50 vehicles involved
the other run was in perth, quite a bit bigger and far more organised. i was a member on the committee for this one and it was alot of bloody hard work. from memory there was nine of us on the committee, 8 in perth and me in the midwest, and then there was all the members of the western patrol club (i think about 30 odd members chipped in. in the end, we had a good turn out in perth with well over 16 grand raised and 300+ vehicles in convoy for around 60 k's from the northern most suburbs, to a motorsport venue in the south. we had a charity auction, a live band, and a sausage sizzle, plus a few supporters stalls etc. 4wd action mag had a rep there and so did 4x4wa (a new west aussie tv show happening soon). our event coordinator, did an excellent job making sure things went well, hopefully we will be able to make it a anual event now too.
