Elsie Denham, a resident of North Ipswich, volunteered to become an entrant in the Royal Flying Doctor Service 2008 Spirit of Queensland Awards to help raise vital funds and awareness for an organisation that has served our nation for 80 years and still provides their services free to everyone who needs transportation and medical assistance.  Elsie is looking for people with a wander lust spirit to make tracks into the real centre of Australia.  Part of her fundraising plan is to invite 10 4WD's to come on an organised 21 day, fun filled tag-along Expedition in September 2009, to share the experience and take part in the re-enactment of a flag raising ceremony that took place twenty-one years ago when the Royal Geographical Society of Australia and the South Australian Army Survey Corp found the real centre of our nation.  Read more details here.

Feb 7   '08 Change is GOOD, is it not?! The web site has had a long overdue maintenance and reconstruction, as it has been getting very large, slow, and unwieldy. The site has now been reduced from 265Mb to 75Mb in size, but, DON'T WORRY, the 2007 News and  2007 Trip Reports remain, and those wonderful Trip Reports and photos from last century have been preserved and the original un cut version of the web site is now available on DVD from the Mitsubishi Club Library (or it will be very soon).  The slash and burn has no doubt resulted in some left over links that don't work, so the webmaster would appreciate your help in verifying the site. The revamped Site Map should make it easier for you to see what is on the site now. Please email any problems to the webmaster including the page NAME and the offending errors. Many thanks!
Jan 25   '08 The weather was kinder to the overseas travellers to Moreton Island..
Jan 22   '08  The troops at Moore Park managed to find ways of amusing themselves through some "interesting" weather.
