Scootaville.

Unfortunately we have had to delay the event - once again!! The current Covid Omicron epidemic has many worried and they are not keen to travel at this time. One major concern is they are worried they could catch the virus and need to be isolated in some outback town in Qld for two weeks. An understandable concern - that left us without a choice.

We haven't decided on a new date yet - there is considerable work involved in re-scheduling this event so we are going to wait until we can see the light in the tunnel, we don't want to have to fo it again.

We do have a few ideas but we won't make them public just yet but when we do settle on a date we will give everyone several month's notice..

Raffles.

All the running around organising the "aborted" Scootaville event has cost money but we're recouping some by holding a few raffles. At present we're raffling a hand-made cigar-box electric guitar. If you live close to Brisbane and would like to own this exclusive item, please go to the Raffle site and buy a ticket.

Over the coming weeks we'll have other items up for raffle - we'll let you know.  If you can help, please do, it's all for a very good cause - Legacy.

AND!!  Please when you buy tickets please fill in the form so we know who you are. Some people just deposit money but don't tell us who they are, some tell us who they are but don't deposit any money.

Can the following please get in touch with us:

1. Stuart Smith

2. Someone who made a deposit on the 10th December (EMB/SMB)

3. Doug Bower

4. Anthony Thompson

5. Someone who made a deposit on the 8th Dec from the Railways credit Union

We're holding funds from these people in Suspense.

Buying a new car?

If you’re contemplating buying a new car, we could save you thousands. The Radschool Association has done a deal with Australia’s biggest car brokers whereby you can purchase a car (your choice of make, colour, specs etc) at fleet discount prices.

One of our blokes made use of this facility recently and bought a Toyota Rav4 and saved thousands. You can too!

To see further details, go to the Radschool Assoc home page (HERE) then click on “New Car Purchase”.

Errors

Our aim is to have this site error free – but that’s probably impossible. But with your help I reckon we can get pretty close. If you see any errors, be they punctuation, spelling, links that don’t work, facts wrong etc, (no matter how small) please let us know so we can fix them.

Thankfully, Ken Morris, who lives over in the West, proof reads our print before it goes public and points out our many errors, not a lot escapes him I can tell you!   

Thanks Ken.
