Dear Sir/Madam

You are one of the key people/organizations in your town who/that have been identified as being likely to be interested in assisting this community project.

We seek your support to establish a permanent long distance walking and cycling trail - THE GOLDEN TRAIL - from Robe to Bendigo , that follows the route of the Chinese gold seekers from the 1850's. Your town and community is on this proposed route, and we believe there are considerable opportunities for your community through having national and international visitors to your town and region.


The trail will:

•  be approx. 500 km long and cater for a broad range of user groups
•  take about 30 days to walk from start to finish (and considerably less for cycle tourers), though it can be walked in numerous shorter segments.
•  use existing town services, eg food, transport and accommodation
•  provide additional accommodation, eg, in remoter areas.
•  aim to be an iconic walk trail
•  link 16 rural towns and cities.


What do we seek from you?

We seek to identify key people in your town who are champions - people who can see the potential in this project for both participants and communities, who understand the importance of developing and maintaining personal and professional relationships in community projects like this, who through their passion can motivate and organize others, who are a good team member and achieve results . We want action people.


Are you that person?

Can you forward this information to those that are, or complete the form attached and forward to us so we can contact them.

With thanks,
Peter Dingle
