Go Bush
4WD club (inc) was formed in October 2004, by a group of 6
four-wheel-driving
enthusiasts. The club was incorporated on 4th Feb 2005 (registration
number A1012031K). All but 1 of these founding members are still in
the club, and 2 are still on the committee, as detailed on our
Honour Board. The aim of this club is to create a small club of family
oriented people, who enjoy going recreational 4WDing and camping, as a
means of an escape from today's busy lifestyles. Our key goals in the
club are to make it as casual as possible, meaning very few meetings,
and the meetings themselves should be primarily a social function,
with the official business taking up only a small portion of the time.
To go 4WDing and camping with a minimum of political fuss, making it
really just a way of formalising a group of friends going out on a
social camping trip. A means of us all sharing ideas / parts / tips
etc with a bunch of like minded individuals.
As
we are a family based club, we want to promote a non-smoking
environment, and as such, all club functions are non-smoking
functions, as detailed in our club's
No Smoking Policy. Yes, you can still join the club if you are a smoker, but
we ask you to refrain from smoking whilst on club events. We also have
a Dog Policy to set guidelines for
bringing your Dog on club events. We will be
aligning ourselves with Quit WA...
www.quitwa.com.
As we usually have kids present on our club functions & trips, we also
try to keep swearing to a minimum.
We
follow the Tread Lightly philosophy. That is, that we stick to defined
tracks, let our tyres down when on soft surfaces to minimise wheelspin,
protect the vegetation and wildlife etc. Although many of our member's
4WD's are modified for better off road performance (big tyres, lifted
suspension, dif-locks etc), we are definitely not a bunch of
rev-heads. I would suggest that if you have a 4WD that resembles a
monster truck, or has a big noisy high performance V8 in it, then
perhaps our club is not suitable for you.
Our
club makes extensive use of the internet. The club's primary means of
communications is via this web site, with all relevant items,
including upcoming trips etc, being posted on the various web pages.
All financial members of our club will also have access to our
Group email facility, which means that you can send a single email
which will be distributed to all financial members. Any such email
must be 4WD / club / camping related, as we do not want to be swamped
with junk emails, and anyone who sends such emails will be removed
from the group pronto!
