The Motley Crew 4wd Club Charity Do at Glendon Camping

Post by MRMACGU »

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Do you want a weekend away camping, 4wding, fishing, golfing and having fun AND helping to raise some money for worthwhile charities?

Then come and join The Motley Crew at Glendon 4wd and Camping Grounds on the weekend of October Fri 2nd to Monday 5th. YES it is a long weekend in NSW only and YES it is the final of the NRL but we have that covered. (we hope). A big screen TV will telecast the grand final and we are hoping Queenslanders can take the Monday off and make it a long weekend and the NSW members can make the journey.

The Motley Crew are supporting the Kim Walter Choices programme who provide support for breast cancer sufferers and their families by way of clinical education, counselling, peer support and much, much, more. For more detailed information please visit their website www.uchealth.com.au/choices . We are also supporting the Prostate Cancer Research being undertaken at the Wesley Hospital.

These deadly diseases affect thousands of people every year and need the support of community efforts such as this to be able to continue the excellent work they do. It affects people dear to us, people we know and people we don’t know.

The weekend will focus on family participation with fun 4wd events planned, events for the kids, golf competitions and fishing competitions plus huge raffles, auctions, entertainment and moderate 4wd guided tours. Some fun events in the planning stages are an egg and spoon race where the passenger holds and egg on a spoon out the window whilst the driver negotiates an obstacle course and an Oz Tent folding competition. Oz Tent have already kindly donated the tents to run this event so THANK YOU OZ TENT. More ideas for events are certainly welcome

To make this a success we need YOU the 4wding community to say YES we want to be part of this. What a great way to show that we as 4wding individuals are not just about going bush and carving up the countryside (as so many of the “ordinary people believe”). We have the chance to show that we are community minded as well and care about what goes on around us.

We need to get an idea of how many people are definitely interested in making this weekend so we can organise facilities at the park at the earliest opportunity, they have indicated if we can get 100 vehicles attending they will close off the park and make it exclusive to us, so the earlier we can get an idea of attendances the earlier we can arrange the final fees and spots for the weekend. It is estimated the cost for camping Friday to Sunday night will be $80 per vehicle per camp site and $100 for powered sites (powered sites are a first in first served basis). If you intend coming in a group we would need to know how many you estimate will be in that group, so we can try and keep you together.

More detailed information will be sent when you register for the event.

We do need more volunteers to help as well as we are only a small club at the moment so if you would like to lend a hand, let me know when you put your name down.

Most importantly we need SPONSORS, so if any of you forumites would like to offer sponsorship if any shape or form (cash or prizes etc) please PM me with a contact number and I will ring and discuss the arrangements with you personally.

We are approaching the 4wd action magazine for coverage and support but this is yet to be finalised.

So come on all – stick your name down as an indication of attendance and let’s show all those non 4wders that we care. Please send an email to me as well as indicating here on the forum to boxxy@y7mail.com so I can add you to the mailing list and send out regular updates via email

Cheers.

Well you've all read the thread. And none of you have even commented. How about yas all show us how goood you are and sign up for the bastard!

It makes me sick that you can post up on this forum and say that Nissan is better than Toyota or that Engel is better than Waeco and start a 2000 post thread over something so inane!

Then someone gets together with some friends to start something worth while and all you pissers and moaners are gone. Not a word out of you coz you think you are too "hard core" for this stuff. While you are out there being tough alpha males with bent up trucks, peoples mother's, sisters, daughters and grandaughters are suffering and climbing mountains your tough rucks would crumble under.

News Flash......"the world is bigger than you" step outside your shell and make a difference, or as everyone seems to be touting now...."justify your existance".

The Motley Crew . Go there, sign up and show everyone that you're not just bigmouths, you can drive, and you do care.

There's the challenge......see you at the start line.

Way to inspire people and get them onboard. :roll: I think you should designate a different Motley crew member as head of public relations becuase that post i qouted is a PR nightmare and leaves me wondering if the rest of your crew support such comments? Good luck with the event though, its a great cause. Just a shame you arent more positive about raising awareness. ;)

Likewise get your facts right before you post your comments.

The reason we used this approach was due to the lack of responce and the ridicule we recieved by posting it in a delicate way. By the way the 4wd action mag is fully behind us with this event and have even given sponsorship.

We never called anyone a dickhead and were laughed at by the majority for supporting a cause.

Mate we discussed this very thouroghly before posting this. We were getting only ridicule from the positive approach and we needed something a bit harsher to get some attention.

Guys we are not here to pick or judge and especially we dont mean to offend but we really need some help with this cause. The whole idea is it doesnt matter who you are or what you drive or what type of driving you do, all that matters is we love 4 wheeling of some description and if we can spare the time there is a great opportunity to get together and support a good cause, meet some new people and have a great time.

Cheers

You called my mate Dirtfix a D**khead remember, which I'm sure he won't forget and neither will I.

Hope to see you out on the tracks soon. :finger:

Should take some of your own advice there Mr MacGU. Like i said before i am all for events like this and if i could have come i would, but you cant go getting pissy at people becuase they dont support your cause. You just gotta roll with it and find a better way to promote it, POSITIVELY! I know for sure that a few people will not be attending now due to what you have posted. And i havent forgotten that you called me a di**head either. Dont get me wrong i am not holding a grudge, i am over it, i just dont forget. Good luck with the event, see you on the trails.
