Thank you to the Committee, Coaches and Hubbies

A big thank you must go to the members who work tirelessly and quitely behind the scenes ensuring the club functions smoothly.
  • Donna who has done a wonderful job as the President -filling in big shoes, she managed to easily fit! 
  • Jenni who is our Secretary - a true talent with words - throw Jen the basics and she writes a masterpiece!
  • Vicki who volunteered to take over as the Treasurer's position when Megan left.  Vicki is also our very efficient Publicity Officer, who had a very successful year taking heaps of photos and sending plenty of stories into the South Burnett Times. 
  • Megan who was our original Treasurer - this position  could drive a girl crazy since we still have members who prefer to sign in differently to how they should! This role does demand a fair amount of time so we much appreciate all your time and efforts.
  • Kerry who has looked after the coach's library and produced our appreciation certificates for our much appreciated sponsors.
  • Julie who is one of our Merchandise Officers, has done a great job of promoting our range of merchandise. Julie also takes care of choosing our weekly routes plus does an excellent job as the B'day Officer ensuring everyone gets to wear the b'day vest!
  • Jo - our wonderful and very successful Grants Officer and Merchandise Officer.  Boy! what a year we have had with our grant applications - we recieved a volunteers grant which will pay for first aid courses, IT education and a colour printer.  Just very very recently we found out we are to recieve a grant from Sport and Rec to further educate some of our coaches - they will study to complete a Cert III and IV in Fitness - opening new opportunities that GGG can offer to our wider community in 2011/12.
Thanks must also go to the Hubbies behind these women - "you're not going running again!  Another meeting, didn't you already see each other today?"  - thanks boys for your patience and sharing your wonderful wifes with the club.

Lastly thank you to our Coaches - its wonderful for myself to be able to share the workload about and I very much appreciate that each and every one of you has stepped up to the plate and offered your own unique way of adding  sooo much to our wonderful club.  Here's to an amazing 2011!
