Hawkesbury Canoe Classic - participate, volunteer or sponsor a paddler

Since its conception in 1977, the HCC has raised over $3 million for medical research with Arrow being the major beneficiary. The event which involves a challenging 111km overnight paddle from Windsor to Brooklyn, has grown significantly with around 600 paddlers, their land crew and hundreds of volunteers meeting on the banks of the Hawkesbury River at Windsor each year.

The event is open to anyone with a suitable craft, and first time paddlers are welcome, so please get involved this year by: participating, volunteering or sponsoring a paddler.

This year's event will take place on the 22nd -23rd October, 2011. For more information visit: www.canoeclassic.asn.au

 

Road 4 Remission

To celebrate the tenth year since his stem cell transplant, Todd Eadie will embark on a bike riding challenge to raise funds for leukaemia research and patient services.

The ride will start on October 20th at St Joseph's Primary School, Tweed Heads, and will finish at Sydney's Northern Beaches on October 29th.

Todd is expected to average close to 95km each day, and will stop along the way at: Ballina, Grafton, Coffs Harbour, Crescent Head, Tuncurry, Bulahdelah, Salamander Bay, Belmont and Woy Woy.

Todd's goal is to raise at least $20,000 to be shared between the Leukaemia Foundation and the Arrow Bone Marrow Transplant Foundation.
