Truckies do their bit for Camp Quality

The Camp Quality Convoy for kids rolls through town.

The weekend’s monster Camp Quality Convoy for Kids was once again an outstanding success with some $250 000 expected to go towards seriously ill children.

With almost 600 trucks involved as well as some 380 motorbikes the journey from West Cliff colliery to Albion Park’s Croome Road complex was both noisy but exciting.

And Australia Post trucks added that extra splash of colour to the increasingly popular event.
