The Australian Road Crew Association has been invited as an exhibitor at this years' ENTECH Roadshow..

ARCA has been assign a space at each event, featuring posters and our banner, with a gathering spot on the floor.

This is agreat opportunity to catch up with people and tell our story. 

Touring each Summer, the tech community gathers for seminars, professional development, and a tradeshow with over 30 leading suppliers showing all that is new. It’s the ultimate networking event, complete with free HAPPY HOUR, serving boutique beers and fine wines.

We would like to extend an invitation to all members to join us in each capital city. Please visit the Entech webisite http://cxevents.com.au/ to register for the event.

We have recently come to an arrangement with Support Act who have offered us their expertise in social and welfare issues and contacts, and have set up a ROADIE fund ONLY for crew. This is a fantastic collaboration for the future of ARCA and the industry.

We retain our autonomy and ARCA will still fundraise to help.

Support Act has established a dedicated fund for road crew together with the Australian Road Crew Association (ARCA). Any donations made to this fund will be used solely to assist road crew through Support Act's crisis service.

If you wish to donate to the Roadies Fund, please write ROADIE in this field.

The link is live  http://supportact.org.au/donate/ and tax deductible receipts will be automatically issued to anyone who makes a donation. The fund is live and working now.

This is a big step on the road to recognising the contribution made by crew... past, present and future.

Sebastian Chase has accepted a position on Support Act board to represent ARCA and its members. Joanna Cave from Support Act will be accepted onto our board.

AC/DC showed their support for ARCA during their recent Oz tour, signing a special tribute to the ARCA fallen. A great achievement for ARCA and all crew. Recognition!!!

Thanx Howard Freeman for your efforts in achieving this.
