where does the money go?
Australian College of Complementary Medicine Pty Ltd 17 November
A great big thank you to the Australian College of Complementary Medicine (ACCM) Pty Ltd and, more to the point, Terry Sweeney (CEO) for pushing us well on our merry Hoplites' way to our target of $10,000. Not only has ACCM found a balance between both western and eastern medicines, but they've also found a balance between corporate drive and social responsibility. Thanks Terry! Captain's note: a bit more info to come on the ACCM shortly!
Torquay Health Foods 23 October
Thanks to Torquay Health Foods (Gilbert Street, Torquay) for providing us with little bags of nuts to help in our fundraising - and a special thank you for Sophie who has gone out of her way to organise this. ***Flashback*** Baz: Where are my nuts?... Oh no, I've lost my nuts!!! *Baz breaks down in hysterical laughter, whilst the rest of the Hoplites look on in despair, confusion and worry*. --- Gosh, memories of Trailwalker 2008 still haunt me.
The Hoplites - back in town! 07 October
Greetings to you all! After having all completely annihilated the Trailwalker 2008 - with the wonderful and much-needed help of our great support crew - we have let ourselves ride on the wings of euphoria and passion once again (and did I mention Pain with a capital P?). The Hoplites will once again trek through the 100km's - and this time around, we look to better our finish-time of 40 hours and 40 minutes. Training is to commence shortly! On the other side, we have also pledged to raise over $10,000 again this year - and our Treasurer Baz Russell (having been the one who eagerly and quite optimistically suggested we go for Platinum once again) has (unwittingly) agreed to making up the difference. So, help The Hoplites help Baz help Oxfam Australia help the wider community. Cheerio - The Captain.
