Car owners will then be required to give their details to the people handing out the stickers.

REMEMBER THIS IS A CHARITY CRUISE SO WE ARE RELYING ON YOUR HONESTY TO PAY FOR YOUR TICKETS AND I'M SURE EVERYONE HERE WOULD DO THE RIGHT THING AND PAY

We will then cruise to the BWCP. All cars are then to put their cars on display.



At approximately 11:30am we will arrive at the BWCP. An organisation will then put on a BBQ lunch for us, and for a few dollars we will be able to purchase a sausage sandwhich and drink etc etc. Monies raised from the BBQ will also go to the Gold Coast Hospital Childrens ward. During the lunch break there will be children bought from the hospital along with their parents and hospital staff, to look at our cars to hopefully put a smile on their faces.

At 2pm a presentation will be made to certain cars that have been judged during the lunch break by sick children, their parents and staff of the Gold Coast Hospital and are deemed worthy of awards. Those winners will receive trophies

After the trophy presentation the cruise will conclude, HOWEVER I would hope we could all cruise safely to the Spit or Esplanade or even stay in the BWCP.

Specific times and meeting points, along with trophy catagories will be posted as soon as I have the final details so PLEASE KEEP WATCHING THIS OPENING POST FOR FURTHER DETAILS AND ANY CHANGES


After many long and hard choices I decided the Gold Coast Hospital Childrens Ward to be the beneficiary for the following reason:-

1.) We all love to cruise the Gold Coast, in particular the BWCP and Esplanade so I thought it was a great oportunity to give something back to the Gold Coast
2.) The Brisbane's Children Hospital gets heaps of fund raising activities, and very little is done for the GCH.
3.) I thought this might have also been a chance to show both the media and businesses on the GC we have hearts and this is the type of things we love to be involved with and give back to the community.

If I could have, I would have loved to help every single charity out there but it was just impossible so I had to make a very hard choice and based on the above I thought this was the right charity for us to dedicate the cruise to.

I would like to say a special thanks to Mrs GSR for her help as it has been tremendiously appreciated and also a very special thanks to pray.gif pray.gif Mcleod for allowing this to be an offical BC event. If this event goes well it will become an annual event.

THIS CRUISE IS OPEN TO EVERYONE, NOT JUST BC SO PLEASE THE MORE THE BETTER AS EVERY CENT RAISED IS HELPING THOSE THAT NEED IT THE MOST AND IT WOULD BE GREAT TO OVER FILL THE BWCP smile.gif

I'M CALLING UPON THE ENTIRE CAR COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT THIS CRUISE, WHETHER YOU HAVE A CAR, 4WD, MOTORBIKE, HOTROD, MOTORISED SCOOTER TO YOUR CHILDS PEDAL POWERED CAR. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT CAR FORUM YOU COME FROM EITHER. I'M AIMING TO RAISE ABOUT $20,000 WHICH I DO NOT BELIEVE TO BE UNRESONABLE OR IMPOSSIBLE (That's 2000 people in total) SO PLEASE GET BEHIND THIS AND SUPPORT IT. LETS SHOW THE GC COMMUNITY WE ARE NOT ALL HEARTLES "HOONS" AND LETS WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE THE LIVES OF THOSE NOT AS FORTUNITE AS US A LITTLE BETTER. AFTER ALL ONE DAY WE WILL ALL BECOME PARENTS AND IT'S A COMFORTING FEELING TO KNOW IF OUR CHILDREN WERE EVER IN HOSPITAL THERE IS SOMEONE WITH THE RIGHT EQUIPMENT LOOKING AFTER THEM. IF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN SICK AS A CHILD IN HOSPITAL YOU WILL KNOW WHAT I'M TAKING ABOUT

***** Please also note folks the following which may help us all one day*****

Hey guys,

I want to have a survey available on the charity cruise day, for all willing participants. I've spoken to Rick about this and am hoping that you will be keen to have surveys on hand to ask people to complete when they hand over their $10 etc.

The survey is basically a few questions about the importance of being in a car club, the level of their involvement, the number of clubs they're in, and a few demographic questions. I've done it so people just tick/circle their preferences. I'm hoping to write a report from the research to provide to the media as well as government agencies to educate them more about the values of car clubs/meets etc. to the (young section of the??) community (who knows - the results may show that people really don't care about being in a club - or that it is very important to them...)

If you would be happy to be a distributor of this survey, please email me on [email protected] so I can send you the survey via email for your perusal and also to send it through the mail (with pencils etc.) to you so you are not paying for the costs of printing etc... (yes I'll need your postal address ) I think I'll be at either the Aspley or Sunnybank meeting spots so I can do some surveys there myself (as well as all through the day of course).

Obviously I need to send the stuff by Wednesday (Coast) or Thursday at the latest to get it to you before Saturday..

Thanks guys , hopefully I can get some decent statistics!! By the way if you have any questions please contact me!

Claire
