Planned for the 8th of May 2021, the Eureka Girl’s behind the wheel 4WD course will be an exciting day of 4WDing split into 2 parts. The day will begin with the sand part of the course held in Gnangara, till mid-day.
We will then make our way to Eureka’s main office in Midvale for a lunch break (tea and coffee provided by Eureka).
We will finish the day by completing the Bush terrain part of the course in an area called Ngangagurin, 30 minutes east of Midland.
