THURSDAY 18th OCTOBER - WAGGA WAGGA TO TUMUT

Up early again for breakfast , today was hosted by Wagga Wagga PCYC - 

What an awesome BBQ - I'm sure a few copies are in the planning stages after seeing this cool BBQ.


Daz was up to hi-jinks - tagging a few official vehicles with Team Afro stickers.



Trevor already had his esCarpade sticker on his car .


Ben giving his morning driver briefing .


 On arriving in Culcairn for lunch - home of Health in a Hurry , the puppies were waiting for their owners.
 The guys with their newly returned puppies.


 Trevor found a great vantage spot for photos.



Adele from Health in  a Hurry , to raise funds for Camp Quality had her hair shaved to a number two blade.

 


For $50 , those donating could have a 'hack' at Adele's hair.


 Adele was saved by a professional hairdresser who finished off the cut .


 The children from Culcairn Primary and another school came to visit the esCarpade and watch the puppet show.


 After the fun of the school visit and puppet show - again we were off .
Onto Tumut - 

808 started the drive in spectacular , though noisy fashion. Theiexhaust had blown out - so they went through to Tumut the quick way around. 

Arriving in Tumut , we found  were staying  at the same motel as the officials, could this mean that some tricks would be played?

The theme for tonight's function was Hillybilly - Ross slipped right into character., all too well. He had Darren & Treen in stitches before even leaving the motel. Due to his ill fitting false teeth his was unable to say the letter "P" without his teeth falling out - it made all themore funny.

 

GIGGLE was looking ready for a hoe-down


What a honey - 



The best dressed team for hillybilly night - 



Father & Son ?



The QLD contingent 



 The officials - a great group of hard working people that made the week seem so seamless and smooth. 
Fundraising presentations were to be made after dinner , but it was decided  that the esCarpadians would probably prefer official photograph be taken NOT in hilly billy gear.
So presentations will be in Canberra on the last night at Old Parliament House.

 We had been donated two bottles of wine from De Bortoli wines for auction . The auction raised $145 for our tally.

That brought the night to an end ...well almost .

Stayed tuned to see what happened after getting back to the motel.....
