This month, the Road Train travels across Victoria, where we’ll clown around with doctors and take part in an Australian festival tradition.
Love is in the air
The Road Train was in Parkes, NSW, on Valentine’s Day to find love all around — and it wasn’t just for the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll during the Elvis Festival held there each January. Norma and Barry Garment renewed their wedding vows with the help of Elvis-impersonating celebrant Robert Steel. On another stop on the Road Train’s journey, The Weekly’s food team cooked up a storm in Mudgee, NSW, with the help of TV handyman Scott Cam.
What’s on this month
Clown Doctors
The Clown Doctors use doses of humour to brighten the lives of sick and distressed children in hospitals. Clown Doctors bring laughter and fun to children during painful procedures, in the emergency room or in the wards. Smile Day on April 1 is the Clown Doctors’ major fundraising event and they’ll be joining the Road Train in Wangaratta. So come along and show your support.
