Meet the Team – Mad Mackerel Crew
🐟 Wayne “Coley” Cole
The heartbeat of The Fishing Shed Bathurst. Loud, proud and full of energy, Coley brings the laughs, the hustle and the passion. A hard worker with a massive heart for Variety and the kids. If it’s got wheels, tools or a Kings showroom in the back of his ute… Coley’s all over it.
🐟 Jay “The Beav” Pappas
Central Coast legend, community champion, charity supporter, family man and cancer survivor. The Beav brings grit, strength and plenty of good yarns to the Bash. A true inspiration with a heart as big as the outback we’re driving through.

Let’s make a splash across NSW • QLD • NT for Variety! 🎣💛🔥
We're getting out on the road for kids in need!
We're going on the Variety Bash and we're doing it to give kids in need a fair go!
Inspired by the work of Variety - the Children's Charity NSW/ACT we wanted to support them by raising money as part of our participation in the Variety Bash.
We created this page to make it easy for people to help us do exactly that. Please give whatever you can to this important cause. Thank you in advance for your generosity, it means a lot!
The more people that know about Variety, the greater their impact, so please spread the word by sharing our page with your friends and family.
Please help us help give kids in need a fair go!
Thank you to our Sponsors
