Newcastle’s Foreshore will host a flashy spectacle on Sunday morning with the departure of the 2013 Variety Bash.
Crews in fancy dress and 80 vehicles, including a 1968 school bus and 1974 fire engine will take part in the 7 day, 2,643 km tour into western New South Wales, the mid north-coast and back again.
It’s the 22nd annual Newcastle Variety Bash with the participants making pit stops at schools and towns along the way donating medical supplies and equipment from money raised during fundraising efforts.
The Bashers will enjoy a pre-departure breakfast from 7.00 am before the convoy is waved off at 8.30 am.
Mrs Sonia Tamplin, the wife of the late Variety Chairman Tony Tamplin, who died last month, will officially farewell the convoy.
