WELCOME...

Historic Cities, Fine Dining, Cultural Highlights, Stimulating Nightlife, Exotic Locations & Cultures. It would be great if we could offer you that but what we've got is the historic towns and villages of the Australian Outback, good country tucker, fantastic hospitality, outstanding and picturesque locations, and a memorable and fun time. You’ll end up with memories that’ll last a lifetime and might even make a few new business contacts. All you’ll need is an appropriate vehicle and the commitment to raise some funds for the new Learning & Life Centre at North Melbourne.

To get in this fun event you'll need to have a pre '79 Bash-style car or a regular 4wd. You'll need to raise a minimum of $4300 per car and $495 per crewmember as donations to the Learning & Life Centre. These donations are tax-deductible and very much appeciated by the kids at the Learning & Life Centre. If you can raise more than the minimum then you will be a bigger hero. You'll need to cover your costs as far as preparing the car, accommodation, fuel and drinks. 3 meals a day are provided for which there is a meal ticket cost. Once we finish the event at the Bathurst 1000, you are free to come home any way you choose.

This is a great event for the boys, and the girls will enjoy it too. Check out the YouTube video on the left of AFL & Kangaroos legend Wayne Schimmelbusch as he experiences some of the fun and frivolity of the 2006 Tour de Kangaroo.
