If you see these guy's in the next 18 months throw them a couple of $$.
Russel is a friend of ours, he has been setting this trip up for 8 years that I have known him, all for charity.
Some of you may have met Russel as he worked at Williams Creek Station doing camel trecs.
I will let Russel tell you.

Gday Steve,
Do you know of Dean Koopman?
He left
Broome with Camels heading for
Melbourne a couple of years back?
Ended up in
Hawker S.A last I heard.
Cheers

No I have never met him.
I know Russel as we worked together as Guides for a few years, I actually asked him to be a business partner, but he had this trek to sort out and achieve.
When we first met he had a camel on his property called Megawati.
Cheers Steve.

I would have thought that the VKS network would have been involved as
well?
