Rob Olifiers keeps on trekking.

I had the pleasure to meet this amazing man, Rob Olifiers, at Taralye's Market Day in August. Along with his colleagues, Rob was there to promote the work of the SES. Rob and I have a lot in common as we both know the courts, lanes and streets of Whitehorse like the back of our hand. For me, as a candidate for Council, it has been in my bid to get to know the people that I want to represent. Rob has covered every inch of Whitehorse in his bid for fitness and to gain a better knowledge of the streets that he may be called out to in an emergency. He has become famous as the "Walking man" of Whitehorse. The dedication of volunteers such as Rob and the community spirit of organisations such as the SES contribute so much to our city. If you are interested in becoming an SES volunteer contact the SES at this link.
