Zoe's Place 2008 Kokoda Trek
 
 
30th May 2008 - 8th June 2008
  
 

Kokoda is known for its amazing history and the bitter fighting that took place in WWII between Australia and Japan on the Kokoda Track from July 1942 to January 1943.

In May 2008, eleven men and women (including two Zoe’s Place staff members) will be taking part in this challenging yet rewarding experience with the aim to raise vital funds for children suffering a life threatening-illness.
The funds raised from The Zoe's Place 2008 Kokoda Trek are going directly towards  improving our services and reaching out to many more Queensland families that need our help.  If there are any individuals and/or companies out there who would like to support us, we would be extremely grateful.
