Meet the team.....
We're very excited to announce that Husqvarna Motorcycles have committed to our 14 DAYS FOR OUR KIDS crossing of the continent. The generosity of the Paul Feeney Group means that we have the best chance possible of making a successful crossing and raising the much needed funds for Our Kids.

Peter has been involved in fundraising for the past 9 years and always with Karen by his side. “It gives us great pleasure knowing that we are making a difference to people’s lives” Peter said.
Peter has been the Manager for Sunnybrand chickens Hatchery for the past 15 years and said that he has enjoyed every minute of it. I have 28 staff and we are hatching over 18,000,000 chicks every year.
The highlights of my life would be my 5 children and holding the record for the fastest trip ever by 4WD over this great country. From Byron Bay to Steep Point and returning in only 6 days. www.4wdcoasttocoast.com.au
Hi my name is Karen. I am a nurse based in Lismore, and I always enjoy the fundraising challengers that Pete and I get involved with. Over the past 9 years I have been involved with Kidney Health Australia, Angel Flight, Rural fire Service, OURKIDS and many smaller groups. Whether it’s helping people in the hospital or doing adventurous fundraising activities, there is always a feeling of achievement for me.

We'll be using the mighty TE610 Husqvarna for the crossing, with one of them being piloted by no less than Rebecca Bateman, twice Women's Australian Supermoto Champion. What a combination!!!

Stuart Auld is a partner in, and the Managing Director of UltraFast Communications Solutions, proud sponsors of Trek Quest. Stuart lived in Lismore for 10 years before moving to Brisbane. He lives with his wife Pam, in the northern suburbs of Brisbane. When he was approached to be a part of this fundraising venture, the answer was easy. "Both my children were born in Lismore Base Hospital. I'd love to be involved in raising funds for Our Kids. When do we leave?", he said. Stuart was part of the team that completed a dual crossing of Australia in record time by 4WD in 2005. Check out www.4wdcoasttocoast.com.au |
