Historical information
ACME Field Days are an expo event where exhibitors, particularly from the agricultural sector, can display and promote their products. In the early 2000s, Arthritis Victoria (AV) brought its Healthy Bones Bus to south west Victoria to spread the 'strong bones, healthy joints' message to regional areas. This initiative was made possible through a partnership with the Moyne Shire Council and Moyne Health Services. This photo depicts an Arthritis Victoria representative and an unidentified man staffing AV's Healthy Bones Bus information stall at an ACME Field Day.
Physical description
COL photo of two men standing behind a rectangular table in front of a large van. On it, there is a range of healthy food items such as cereals, various types of milk, cheeses, yoghurt, a plastic ice cream container, some canned food, and some fresh fruit. The van has a large door open on the side, displaying the text, "Osteoporosis Victoria 1800 011 041". Below the text, there is a display board with some posters on it. Hanging from the inside edge of the van door is a long vertical banner with the text and logo for the Moyne Shire. Behind the men, there is a large "Moyne Health Services" banner (partially obscured) attached to the ballustrade on the side of the van. In the background, there is a bale of hay on the grass, and two vehicle or trailer wheels are evident behind it.
