Our why? ..... This boy
• CARTER GEOFFREY KEEBLE •

Our boy was only 11 days from his 4th birthday when we lost him in a tragic accident on January 2nd 2025.
This has been the toughest time in our lives as a family. But as we have navigated this grieving process we have come to realise it's not only our lives he impacted in his short time here but so many near and far.

We are truly blessed to be his parents and even though he is not here we still strive to honour him anyway we can to keep his name and memory's alive.
So then came Carter legacy ride.....

What started as a couple mates who loved postie bikes, a crazy idea and the heart to want to honour a little boy has now become so much more.

We will be travelling on Postie bikes on the 6th of July 2026 from the Allies pub in Bendigo to the Boulia Camel races arriving by the 16th of July.

We are running as a non for profit but all monies raised, donated sponsored etc will be given to the Boort hospital.

The Boort hospital have been a vital part in our whole journey from day one and continuing now.
We were honoured to have so many people help us when we needed it most and now it's our turn to give back..

We hope you all can follow our ride, share, love and join in on making a journey our little boy would have loved

Our Story

Boort District Health has had an interesting and colourful history.

Until 1892 the first semblance of a hospital service was provided from a local hotel by John King, a doctor’s son. A room at Dr. Birds home then became the hospital until such time as a cottage hospital was built in 1903.

This hospital was rebuilt in 1920 as a private hospital and subsequently became the Boort Bush Nursing Hospital in 1931. Following a decision by the Hospital Board to adopt public hospital status, the existing hospital was built on its present site and opened in 1961 with capital works funding provided by the State Government.

Over the years the hospital has undergone a number of refurbishment’s and expansions. The Day Care Centre was built in 1989 and a new nursing home wing in 1997. In 1979 the Hospital Board auspiced the construction of a 30 bed hostel on crown land.
