Hi Everyone , Well its done for another year our annual Try Sailing Gold Coast University Hospital Fundraiser that was held last Sunday and I dont mind saying it was a great success with a good amount of money raised to go to the hospital on the day . People asked me on sunday why we do this event well we do it because it helps our community and obviously the hospital and its staff who I believe dont receive the full recognition the deserve but then again I am a bit biased as the have helped me in the past especially in 2023 .
Thanks to Gold Coast City Council and our Division 4 councillor ( Cr Shelly Curtis ) for making this years event even bigger by financially supporting the event by supplying a jumping castle , face painter and kayaks all of which made especially the kids smile , I even had my face painted yes me ! and its was fun with all the club kids laughing their heads off as I was getting it done .
These events cannot happen without volunteers from the people on the shore to the people on the water especially our sailors in Greg , Nic , Roger Leila, Halle , Zach , Daniel and Jade who wore themselves out just going back and forth , I heard Nic even fell asleep in his car at one stage . I didnt get to sail but I was talked into taking the jetski out for a run by Leila and then of course everyone else wanted a go well some more that others especially a couple of sailors who screamed that loud that I couldnt hear the jetski engine but they still got off smiling right Jade!!! .
Again thank you to everyone who donated their time on the day I personally appreciate everyones efforts as its a project that always been close to my heart..
