Hi Everyone,

We are presenting an extremely unique guest speaker next Tuesday week
November 11th at 7pm at UWA's Social Science Theatre. Tim Cope journeyed
from Mongolia to Hungry on horse back travelling in the "Footsteps of
Genghis Khan" and taking over 3 years to complete this amazing journey.

Tim won Australian Geographic's Adventurer of the Year Award in 2006, he has
presented to National Geographic's Annual Adventure Awards in Washington,
his documentary "Off the Rails' has been screened on the ABC and "The
Yenisey Expedition", about his rowing expedition across Siberia to the
Arctic Ocean, has been screened on the National Geographic channel.

Tim combines still shots with video footage in this awe inspiring
presentation that will make you want to get up out of your seat and embark
on your own journey of a lifetime.

We are doing this presentation to help Tim raise $7000 for quarantine
services to bring his faithful dog Tigon out to Australia. Tigon, which
means 'Hawk' or 'fast flyer' in Kazakh, accompanied Tim on his epic journey
guarding his 3 horses and keeping Tim safe from wolves and bandits.

Tickets are $20 and are available from Mountain Designs 862 Hay St Perth,
9322 4774. Bookings are essential.
Hope to see you there,
Cheers,
Mike Wood.
Mountain Designs WA & Peregrine Adventures WA.
