We are now selling Multi-Walk Cards and Golden Boots Cards online during walk registrations.
The cards are virtual. As you use trips off of your Multi-Walk Card those trips will be debited. When you have insufficient trips remaining to participate in a walk you are registering for you will be prompted to purchase a new card, and a new card of five trips will be credited to your account. Cards will no longer be issued as paper cards.
If you have any questions, please contact the office.
It’s just 4 weeks until the Day on the Heysen Trail – the Warren Bonython Memorial Walk. We’ve released a selection of event clothing you can wear on the day, or keep as a souvenir of the event.
Purchase online now at www.sportscentre.com.au.
Delivery is available. Orders placed prior to 22/9/13 will be available before the October 6th event.
The t-shirt is moisture wicking, and available in womens and mens fit. The polo top is breathable polyester and available in red or white.
With Saturday’s election looming, Bushwalking Australia has investigated expressed policies and the track record of political parties on a range of environmental, health and transport issues that may interest walkers.
“Too often, strong industry lobbies and vested interests have successfully derailed attempts to improve and reform important policies to the detriment of walkers and walking. Unlike other forms of sport, recreation and transport, the benefits of walking are not captured by powerful industries and interests, but flow across the entire society and economy, ” states the introduction.
