The 28th edition of the annual Goulburn Valley Hospice Rallye heads from Shepparton to Bendigo on Saturday, May 4, with strong numbers registered.
Kelvin Maude, Chair of the rally committee, said “We have over 40 vehicles currently entered and expect a few more between now and the start day. Entries are still open, so if anyone has been thinking of coming, please get in touch.”
The 2024 edition sees some new developments in fundraising activities. For the first time the auction items will be offered online allowing anyone wanting to support GV Hospice to participate. This is being conducted via the Kevin Hicks Real Estate online auctions platform at www.khre.com.au/online-auctions
“Over 60 items have been donated by the business community of Greater Shepparton, ranging from RM Williams boots, sunglasses, jewellery, hand tools, bicycle and numerous shopping vouchers” Kelvin said. “And our annual major raffle is also in full swing, tickets are available at numerous business locations around Shepparton or by contacting me.”
To date the GV Hospice Rallye has raised over $1.1 million dollars for GV Hospice Care, representing a significant contribution to the annual funding of this important local service.
The rally is a navigational challenge on sealed roads over two days. This year the event stops overnight in Bendigo. Any vehicle can be entered, whether it be a modern passenger car or something a little more collectable.
