The Bushtracker Owners Group was conceived by our past President and Patron, Bob Pollock, AKA “Turist” late in 2002 after speaking with other Bushtracker owners in various campsites around this great country.
Bob saw a need for a facility where owners of Bushtracker vans could swap information about all things Bushtracker and together with Pete Spring, aka “Motley”, opened our first website on a public MSN forum in February 2003.
The Bushtracker Owners Group is completely independent of Bushtracker International. Whilst we retain connections with the factory, we believe that it is in the best interests of our members to operate as an independent organisation.
The first official rally of the Bushtracker Owners Group was held at Cania Gorge, Qld in September 2003.
Membership of the Group grew rapidly and we decided to form a legal entity so the Bushtracker Owners Group became a registered non profit association in August 2004.
The Bushtracker Owners Group is entirely a member owned entity.
We operate as a not-for-profit organisation and the members of the Committee are volunteers. They do not receive any financial compensation for the time that they commit to their duties on behalf of the Association.
Our charter records the fact that we are a not-for-profit organisation and goes further to explain that, from time to time, the Committee will determine that any funds deemed to be in excess of the requirements for operation of the Association will be donated to a charity in the location of the Annual Muster. In 2006, we made our first donation to the RFDS of $5,000. 2008 we supported the Quilpie Kindergarten, 2009 An organisation helping under privileged children and 2 local fire brigades.
2010 saw donations Of $2000 to the Herberton Equestrian Centre and $1000 to the car club that supplied all the firewood for the muster.
Our website and activities are paid for by member subscriptions, sponsor assistance and fund raising activities.
We held our first Annual General Meeting and Election of Officers at Copeton Dam NSW in September 2004.
Our current website was opened in September 2004.
The current officers of the association (2011-12) are:
President, Pam Stanley.
Vice President, Neil Matthews.
Secretary, Vacant
Treasurer, Dianne Alcorn
The committee is supported by a sub committee consisting of:
Mick Mnew
Stella Voolstra
John Duncan
Peter Spring
