Join in the fun and raise much-needed funds for your community helicopter rescue service!
Registrations for the school landing close October 10, 2021
Competition submissions close October 29, 2021
Rescue Chopper Week which runs from October 18th - 24th allows RACQ CQ Rescue to engage directly with schools, community groups and local businesses on the importance of our rescue helicopter and ways that the community can continue to help keep the chopper in the air saving lives.
Every school that registers will have the opportunity to be visited by RACQ CQ Rescue, to hear firsthand about our work across Central and Northern Queensland. One lucky school will win a helicopter landing on their school oval during Rescue Chopper Week, where students will be able to meet the crew and take a closer look at our helicopter.
There also some great ways that the community can also get on board to win prizes. Check out the competition levels and download your competition entry form below for your chance to win.
