Our Spirit Blog - Kokoda Track

Sixteen Victorian University students, of similar age to the diggers sent to war in PNG, were amongst the July group who trekked the Owen Stanley Ranges from Kokoda to Ower's Corner with Aidan Grimes and for the first time, his 15 year old son, Sean.

Aidan Grimes and his wife, Kris attended the QLD RSL AGM in Port Douglas where Aidan was presented with the National RSL ANZAC of the Year Award 2012 in recognition of his outstanding service.

Another amazing Kokoda Track adventure was successfully accomplished by two groups of service personnel and six very motivated legatees for the annual ANZAC Memorial trek from Kokoda to Ower's Corner

We (Kokoda and Our Spirit) have lost one of our greatest friends yesterday. John Beleni has passed away and it saddens me greatly to have to write this notice.
