SA Firey:
Convoy for Kids
On Sunday 24 May, Novita Children’s Services will once again host the annual CMV Convoy for Kids, the largest charity truck convoy of its type in the world.

Since 1992, the Convoy has been putting smiles on the dials of thousands of special little South Aussies – and in 2009, the event will be celebrating 17 years of taking kids with disabilities on the ‘ride of a lifetime’!

Around 300 children with a physical disability will ride in this year’s Convoy, which is expected to raise more than $30,000 for Novita. Thousands of South Aussie families are also expected to line the route and cheer on the big-hearted truckies and their precious passengers.

The trucks involved in the 2009 Convoy will assemble at our brand new venue, Wikaparndo Wirra (Park 22), in the Southern Parklands, in the heart of Adelaide (enter via Anzac Highway), before filling their cabins with smiling families and setting off on a spectacular convoy through the streets of Adelaide and back.

Throughout the day, Wikaparndo Wirra will also be home to the Convoy Carnival, a free family fun day featuring games, rides and entertainment - including Peter Combe - for the whole family, plus the Truck Show 'n' Shine!

The Convoy for Kids Committee is delighted to have naming sponsor, CMV back on board this year. Together, Novita and CMV celebrate significant milestones in 2009, their 70th and 75th anniversaries respectively.
