Wombats

Jo and Neil have an affinity with one of Australia's iconic animals, the 'Wombat'. After all we have named our team Wombats Khan !!!!

 

We are going to use the Rally media (This Blog, the Car etc) to advertise the plight of these animals. Hopefully we can help those working with the Wombats to raise funds as we go along with preparing for the Rally, and during the rally itself. When you have a moment, have a look at the websites - we will add links to our Blog in the next few days.

 

We recently touched base with a number of organisations who are working to save the Wombat. The Wombat Foundation is the not-for-profit organisation dedicated to saving the Northern Hairy Nosed Wombat. The Northern Hairy-nosed Wombat is one of the world's most endangered species, it is more endangered than the Panda. At last count, in 2010, there were 176 Northern Hairy-nosed Wombats left on the planet..........makes you think doesn't it...

After the event

Saturday night was a great success thanks to our sponsors generosity and all those that came along and joined in with the Quiz night. Stitches the Bear from the PMH Foundation joined us and helped to get the evening going. We made over a $1000 for the PMH - a big thank you to everyone.
