ABOUT US
The Roo Run is a fundraising initiative of the Anglesea Motor Yacht Club (AMYC). The Anglesea Motor Yacht Club has teamed up with the Anglesea Discovery Camp to present the Anglesea Roo Run in 2025 which we hope will be a huge success. Funds raised have contributed to the upgrade of the club in recent years and there are more improvements in store. The club house is also home to board riders, fisherman, ASLSC beach patrol at Point Roadknight and home to a 6 metre rescue boat which not only starts the catamaran races but functions in ocean rescues. This rescue boat requires replacement every five years and is a major expense for the Club.
In addition, the extension to the top deck of the club house has turned the 5:00pm - 8:00pm Christmas holiday “Rusty Anchor Bar” into arguably the best casual beach bar on the coast, given our beachside position!
The Anglesea Roo Run falls the night before the ASLSC Rock 2 Ramp ocean swim each year and offers elite and serious runners, recreational runners, kids under 12, physically challenged kids and young adults the fun and incentive of family friendly competition. Offering visitors and locals a family-based summer fun run, the breathtaking location utilises our beautiful back beach, coastal trails and the Anglesea river walk, attracting runners from far and wide!
In addition to fundraising for the Anglesea Motor Yacht Club, the Roo Run also supports local community organisations such as The Surf Coast Trail Runners, Men’s Shed, Rubbish Rangers, Anglesea Snappers and Lions Club.

To everyone that is participating in this wonderful Roo Run event, we applaud you for embracing our beautiful environment in such a positive way. To us you’re already a winner! At Soulful Living Real Estate we are so thrilled to be major sponsor of the Anglesea Motor Yacht Club and support the Roo Run Event. It’s a privilege to have my business and brand associated with AMYC, its such a natural and beautiful fit because we share the same goals and values. Being established estate agents on the surf coast for many years and having transacted many properties in that time, we identified a genuine need for a fresh approach to Real Estate and Property services. 
Our approach has always been to deliver respectful and transparent negotiations, where both parties including vendors and purchasers walk away from the experience feeling elated for the positive move of selling or buying on the coast and regionally.
Property on the surf coast is more than a dwelling; it is a choice to be surrounded by an environment that will uplift the soul and stimulate the senses. A life changing decision to reside or secure a lifestyle asset in a stunning region. This is a time in all our lives where we have had an opportunity to reassess how we live our lives, more than ever people are wanting to make positive changes for their future. For anyone we have dealt with over the many years, improving health and wellbeing has been the biggest impact of enjoying a coastal and regional property. A strong business ethos and commitment to being approachable, straight talking with an intrinsic desire to get the deal done and always with the end goal of delivering outcomes that will exceed expectations for all parties. We offer all Property services including, Sales, Property Management and Holiday Accommodation. Please give me a call if I can assist in anyway.
