Club Trip 18th and 19th September

Hi Guys,

I’m taking a trip around the Woods Point area on the weekend of 18th and 19th of September.  We are going to go over Mount Skene on Saturday, so we have to fill in some paperwork and submit it to the Association to have access.

I need to know who wants to come, the trip is open to financial members and visitors, though with limited numbers avaliable, financial members get first crack.  If you want to come, send me an e-mail with your vehicle make and model, rego number and number of passengers NO LATER then 7pm Wednesday the 8th of September.

There are already a couple of members with their names on the trrip sheet, so join in the fun, we should still have some great snow on the Mountain.

Humph

On a side note, If anyone wants to travel in complete luxury, I have a passenger seat which is vacant and needs to be filled.

New Hiluxclub Website Launched !!

Welcome to the new website for the Toyota Hilux 4×4 Club of Victoria.

Just like an old hilux, the old website had served us well for many years.  It just kept racking up the kilometers, but  had a few quirks, and required a bit too much maintenance.  Well, time has come to trade in the old website on a brand new model.

The new website should allow us to add heaps of new features.  We have loaded up the past 12 months or so worth of photo’s, and there will be an ongoing project to get all 150 or so trip’s worth of photos, videos, magazines etc loaded up (volunteers are welcome).

The old website will still be available (http://old.hiluxclub.org.au) until we get everything working smoothly here.

Club Members, register on the new website (old member and/or forum logins won’t work) to see extra photo’s etc. Stay tuned as we add a few after market accessories and get the new website firing.

Cheers, Paul.
