Land Rover Club of the ACT, Inc |
The Land Rover Club of the Australian Capital Territory (ACT) is a non-profit, social and recreational club for residents of the A.C.T. and region with a common interest in four wheel drive vehicles. Established in the 1960s by a group of Land Rover enthusiasts, the Club now caters for owners of all types of vehicles with serious off-road capability, including Jeeps, Land Rovers, Mitsubishis, Nissans and Toyotas. The Club's aim is to promote safe, responsible four wheel driving, consistent with the Four Wheel Drive NSW & ACT Code of Ethics, as well as respect for the Australian environment and its cultural heritage. To this end, we provide advice to members on four wheel driving and recovery techniques and undertake related community activities, such as the recovery of abandoned vehicles from ACT forests and reserves and the restoration of Long Plain Hut. We also engage in demonstration events, including our regular "Show & Tell" days and the 4WD Spectacular, held every two years at Queanbeyan Showground. However, our core activity is four wheel drive trips, from one-day adventures in the local region to journeys of many weeks duration to the most remote corners of Australia. Most of the locations described in our popular CampGroundCorner DVD have been recorded by members on Club trips, or by their families and friends. Following the highly successful Outback Land Rover Heritage Drive 2010, the Land Rover Club of the ACT is once again leading a drive for heritage Land Rover owners and friends through an iconic region of outback Australia.
