Thank you!! 🚘❤️🚘❤️🚘❤️

After travelling an incredible 1,150 kilometres, visiting 7 schools, and connecting with countless communities, we wrap up another unforgettable year of TasBash…and what a year it was!

From Team Little Italy, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported us throughout this amazing adventure. While we had an absolute blast on the road, the best part is knowing that every dollar raised by our generous sponsors and donors goes directly to Variety Tasmania – helping kids in need.

We are thrilled to share that Team Little Italy raised over $21,000, earning us Platinum status for the fourth consecutive year — an achievement we are incredibly proud of! 🎉

A massive thank you to our amazing supporters, none of this would be possible without your generosity and enthusiasm:

Day 6: Country Club to Country Club – 130km Travelled

Dav and Bruno hit the road with Blinky!

The final day of the Bash kicked off with a visit to Riverside Primary School, Launceston — and what an incredible morning tea! A huge thank you to all the students and teachers for their warm welcome and hospitality.

Next stop was The Shed Rocherlea, where we had the pleasure of meeting so many wonderful families who remind us exactly why we do what we do.

We wrapped up the adventure in true TasBash style, celebrating at Country Club Tasmania — the perfect finish to an unforgettable journey.

Day 5: St Helens to Launceston - Team Little Italy rolls with the Crackers! 232 km travelled

The day kicked off leaving a very wet St Helens, but a bit of rain couldn’t dampen the fun with the Crackers!

Our journey took us to Ringarooma Primary School and Bridport Primary School, where we were welcomed by some incredibly excited students. The laughter and smiles were contagious. Thank you for your warm hospitality!

In the afternoon, we tested out the brand new “The Range” at Country Club Tasmania and wow, what a spot! Do yourself a favour and check it out ⛳️🏌️‍♂️

We wrapped up the day with a special 35th Birthday Bash at Bolters, Country Club Tasmania the perfect way to celebrate!

Final Day tomorrow!

Day 3 (220 km travelled) & Day 4 (170 km travelled)

Let’s just say… we don’t talk about Day 3. 😅 Everything was going great until the afternoon — we visited Southern Support School and Kempton Primary School, where we were welcomed with such warmth and hospitality. Thank you all! But after tackling some rather rocky roads, disaster struck… we broke Gina. 💔



Day 4: Team Little Italy Rides with the Beach Boys

A new day, a new adventure! We kicked off the morning in beautiful St Helens and teamed up with the Beach Boys, who took us to two of Tasmania’s gems, Eddystone Point and Ansons Bay. Absolutely stunning!

From there, we headed to Winnaleah District High School for a visit and were treated to a delicious lunch — roast chicken with gravy… mamma me!!🍗 Afterwards, it was off to Bayside Hotel St Helens for dinner to wrap up the day.

A massive thank you to Rusty Nuts (Bres and Rodney) for the rescue mission, and to Matt, Dave and the officials for giving us a lift home! Big thanks as well to Grant from St Mary’s Ampol for letting us leave Gina there and checking out the damage.

Gina might be out of the race for now, but Dav and Brun are pressing on — keeping the Variety spirit alive and rolling strong! ❤️

Day 2: Orford to Orford - 224kms travelled

Gina goes to the Peninsula!!

We had an early start, leaving Orford and heading south toward the Tasman Peninsula. Our first stop was Dunalley, where we enjoyed morning tea at the Dunalley Community Hall…and what an incredible spread it was! A huge thank you to the community for their warm hospitality.

From there, we continued south to McHenry Distillery for a sneaky gin and a delicious lunch before making our way back to Orford. We stopped in at the Orford Bowls Club for a few games and a BBQ, then wrapped up the day with dinner at the Eastcoaster Tasmania.

Tomorrow, Gina goes to school!! 📚📚📚
