Event History
The first Destination Outback event was held in 1990. Howard Laughton suggested the idea to Peter Scott and after doing some work on it they presented it to John Robertson, President of the Rotary Club of Dubbo South at the time, who enthusiastically backed the idea. Since then there has been many trips with hundreds of thousands of dollars raised for small communities and charities in need.
