Official launch

Friday 3 August 2012
All the vehicles assembled in Dawson Creek (Mile 0) for the official launching ceremony. A lot of people circulated around to view the vehicles and talk to the owners - even the women come up and ask questions.
After the ceremony we went back to the camp ground to be treated with a BBQ of hamburgers and sausages supplied by Trimac, a local transport company. There is a shortage of drivers because of the gas and coal industry and they are desperately trying to recruit drivers.
We did the majority of our packing as we were due to form into our convoy group at 6.30am the following morning.
