new car

Wow we got another car.
Why - because this one is all set up ready to go, it was used on a few bashes and they were selling it on ebay. and guess what its a valliant. I love valiants i have had a few of them and they are a great car and this one will be a beauty. ( post some pictures soon)
Its so exciting we are now closer to getting car registered and will be able to drive it to promote the variety bash. Will ( michelles partner) will still has to do some mechanicals on the car and will need a good tidy up. But it will be some much less work for everyone now.

And we picked up the cookie dough today and have delivered it to most of you that bought it just a few more tomorrow. That was agreat effort and we once again thank all of you who helped out. So go make some cookies everyone.

Well here she is our HZ Holden wagon, thanks to michelles partner Will forgetting this car for us. Will is going to do the mechanicals on the car it came with V8 but Will is putting a 202 in it for us (little bit cheaper on fuel ) And my partner Dimo will be painting it. not sure of colour yet as our sponsor has an imput, but we would like to keep to our theme as kittens. maybe orange and black stripes or white and black stripes. so we will have to wait to see who our sponsors are.
Well first fundraiser for the year is the cookie dough. If you haven't seen this dough before its great stuff , you just spoon it out onto tray then place in oven. Its that simple. Tastes great uncooked to. Sells for $13 a tub and comes in 6 flavours.
So lets see how we go.

Introduction


Hi my name is karen ( 3rd one along) and these are my friends/work colleges Michelle, Joy, Me and Helen and we are entrants in the xxxx variety bash 2008, car number 450.


What is the xxxx variety bash you ask!!!!!


The 2008 XXXX Gold Variety Bash will commence in Toowoomba on the Darling Downs and trek through remote townships of the outback QLD and NSW and most iconic stops in between, Heading down to Mt Panorama at Bathurst for the V8 supercars.
Starting 3 to 12 October 2008.

This event requires a tremendous amount of commitment from participants who not only spend time preparing their vehicle for this great journey of 3500 klm but also commit to raise a minium of $7000 in donations for the Variety QLD Incorporated as well as participants provinsions levy to expenses such as food, fuel, selected marketing materials etc..


So we have a car will post a picture soon. The car is a hz holden ( as the car has to be 20yrs old ) But at the moment our most important thing is to start raising money. We need a major sponsor who can help us out, ( so if you know of anyone you can email me)

The major sponsor has a say in what the car can look like.


So now that christmas is over and the new year is going its time to get into some fund raising. we have a few ideas tell you more about them soon.





So Far This Year
