Bushfire Appeal

[FineLine]

I posted this in our qld section, What are the chances of all states doing something similar on the same day. A coordinated multi state effort should see some good results for the poor buggas.

In light of the horror unfolding in victoria as I type I am proposing cruise to raise funds to help the poor buggas left behind to deal with the fallout.

The western whale watchers cruise will take place on sunday the 22nd of feb.

Staging point will be at woolly's/macca's carpark at yamanto, departure time will be 8.30 sharp.

Cruise duration will be advertised when I get some feed back as to how long you guys wish to drive for.

There will be a food vendor at the cruise destination and i will be hitting him up for a dontation of some of his profit garnered by our presence.

Cruise donation of 10 dollars per car will be the price and if any members have contacts a couple of worthwhile raffle prizes wouldnt go astray. any further donations will be gratefull accepted.

Funds will go to the red cross bushfire appeal.

Sounds like a great idea... I'll be happy to donate.

I would definately be in a cruise in the act to raise money etc

I'll be at Soundwave in Sydney on that date but would be more than happy to participate in something either the weekend after or contribute to anything that does go ahead.

Sit tight, kiddies; the wheels are slowly in motion on this one

Sounds like another car club (Preludes) is trying to organise a cruise.

If it turns out like the Tsunami Cruise back in 04 then it should be great!

march 8 is a bit far away I thought? Wouldn't one sooner be better?

Let me know if you need a hand organising. Will donate/cruise/BBQ whatever it takes.

I just heard a Drift Australia Driver 'Luke Jacobs' passed away in the Victoria Fires.

This is just getting worse RIP all Hope they catch the people who lit these fires if that's the case.

G'day all. I know some, if not most, will remember the Tsunami cruise in '04, put together by Valvebounce. Well, one half of that was/is me, and I'm just looking into logistics etc of doing the same. These thing do take time to sort, and the effect of what has happened, and is still happening, in Vic', will be with all of us for a lot longer yet unfortunately.

I know everyone means well by getting a cruise/donation happening pronto, but if we all think it out, we'll all have much more positive impact long term.

Can anyone that has contacts in any other car club looking at doing something please PM me so I can get my details passed on?

It looks like any efforts to get my GT-R alive again will be put on hold yet again. At least this time it's a worthy cause!

Cheers, Jayce.
