Over the past 4 years, our groups have been nominated for a total of twelve group and individual Australia Day Awards across numerous categories.

A special mention to both the Townsville & Central Qld Hike & Explore communities, organisers, leaders & supporters who have ensured that our social outdoor bushwalking, hiking and adventuring communities continue to lead the way in sharing the outdoor experience with those of all ages, fitness levels and capabilities.

We’d love to to see you at either (or both) of the Townsville & Clermont Australia Day ceremonies – details can be be found on the Townsville City Council & Isaac Regional Council websites.

We look forward to attending both ceremonies & congratulate all other nominees, and those who selflessly volunteer their time for the betterment of the community.

Fun, Fitness, Friendship and Community.
