Camp Quality Convoy to Get Underway in Maitland

BY PETER HYSLOP

Camp Quality is set to launch it's Newcastle Convoy at the weekend, bringing together 100 trucks for a 38-kilometre journey through Newcastle and Maitland.

Trucks are in competition to be the best of the convoy with a goal of raising $120,000.

Camp Quality's Sandy Hall says it'll provide much-needed funds.

"We do a lot in the local John Hunter Hospital. These funds raised across the day will go towards supporting kids and families in the local area and across New South Wales," she said.

"We couldn't do these events without our incredible community.

"To our long-standing Newcastle supporters, the trucking community, our partners, our sponsors, we couldn't do it without community support and I hope people come along and check it out on the day," she said.

Transport for NSW is advising of changed traffic conditions on Sunday in roads through Maitland, Gillieston Heights, Heddon Greta and Beresfield.
