BRAVE HEARTS HIGHWAY THUNDER

Date: 3/09/11

This year we are proud to be supporting the Brave Hearts Highway Thunder.

Highway Thunder is an important fundraising initiative which enables Bravehearts to continue its’ programs and services to educate, empower and protect children. 

Highway Thunder is a convoy of thousands of cars, trucks, motorbikes and other roadworthy vehicles travelling from the Logan Hyperdome car park to Parklands Gold Coast under a police escort.

All vehicles will proudly display “Protect our Kids” car flags in a show of support for Aussie kids.
