CHRIS SYMONS Chair
from the chair
Following our AGM in December, I am honoured to be able to lead the foundation for another year. Whilst we had some amazing results in 2016, we look forward to growing further in 2017. The following board members have been appointed for 2017 with Phil Fuglsang also taking up the Vice- President’s position. I would like to welcome new board members Mick Aquarola, Nick Daking and Darren Alexander and look forward to them growing our presence in the north of the state. 2017 [THAT] Foundation Board - Adam Rasmussen, Alexia Kalis, Josh Baker, Bill Avery, David Cawthorn, Dominic Bury, Zak Douglas, Maree Gerke, Greg Astell, Phil Fuglsang, Steve Old, Tom McGinn, Steve Salter, Mick Aquarola, Nick Daking and Darren Alexander and Justin Voss. The board has now created new connections with the hospitals and community groups that will lead to more requests coming in. Whilst this will create additional work loads and the need for more funds the board is excited at the opportunity to support more children and their families. We are starting to plan our annual golf day and will announce further details in the coming weeks. If you are able to offer support through donations, volunteers and/or team entries please contact myself or the THA office. The board are keen to continue our successful southern dinners but we are also planning to run a fundraising dinner in the north this year. If you know of any children requiring assistance and/or are able to support with donations please do not hesitate to contact me (0408 075 734 or csymons@goodstart.org.au ) or one of the other board members to discuss if we can assist.
