Steve Irwin Cruise
How ya goin guys,
Im new to the site and with the recent passing of Steve i was thinking maby we could organise a cruise up to beerwah and visit australia zoo. Maby
aslo everyone give some money and it could be donated to wildlife warriors. I thought it would be a good idea to get to meet new people and a good day
to racognise one of the greatest blokes Australia has seen. Just thought i would throw the idea out there and see what sort of response we get.
Cheers Brendan

Can't do this Sat as my bug is being used for a wedding car.
I think give people plenty of notice so they can plan this with their families....I think a lot of kids would love to go to this.
Maybe in the school holidays coming up...

Hay BRENDAN just got this GREAT message today.. Welcome to the site and this is a wonderful idea.... We have all been cut up really bad by the
passing of this FABULOUS person.. We went up on the Wednesday PM (of the week he passed) and it was unbelievable and just so healing in many ways.
I would love to be part of this RUN, But could we possibly hold off to hear about when his "Public Memorial" will be? What's everyones thoughts on
this?
I can get more of the BRISSY people to come aboard for this worthwhile VW Outing to Aust Zoo...
Let us know your thoughts.

:cry THE RESPONSE SOUNDS LIKE IT WILL BE "HUGE" the only problem we are all having is picking a date. There is a couple of things happening on the
23 SEPT, so I think this is going to be out. "SO" how is SUNDAY 24 SEPT looking for everyone. The following weekend is "WARICK DRAGS" so that
will be out of the question.
ALTERNATIVELY - HOW ABOUT 8th OCTOBER, this looks free!!! To be honest - it won't matter when we do this convoy to honour/remember/say goodbye to
Steve IRWIN, as long as we all get together, and remember "This Great Legend" (money could be donated to wildlife warriors) is a great idea and
Australia Zoo would be greatful at any time.
LET'S KEEP PURSISTING WITH THIS GOOD CAUSE
