I would like to throw out a huge THANKS to those people who donated $$$ towards this year’s event. Without your support, trophies would not be possible.
Unfortunately, this years event was not sponsored by our normal businesses as I did not get sufficient time to organise due to my overseas trip and work commitments.
Thank you to everyone who took part, both activators and hunters.

Great work to everyone involved!

Hi Chris,
This weekend is always a lot of fun. I’m hoping for some more Team participation in the next few years.
