Southern Fleurieu explored on tour

Each year, the Yankalilla and District Lions Club runs a four-wheel-drive tour of the southern Fleurieu Peninsula on the weekend after the Yankalilla Show.

Open to car clubs, it is run on the Saturday and Sunday and is one of the club’s major fundraisers.

It gives many people who live outside of the locality the opportunity to see the area’s wonderful country and coastline.

This year, 60 people took part in the event and, as always, the feedback was that everybody loved it.

Lions members Jim Biggs and Peter Krichauff have run this event for many years and did a fantastic job – as did the other Lions members who acted as group leaders or gate openers, and those who managed the administration process.

The club thanked the various landowners whose land the group traversed – without their assistance and support, the club could not run this event.
