CONGRATULATIONS MINH ON COMPLETING THE CHEVRON CITY TO SURF HALF MARATHON
September 8th, 2014
Our congratulations go out to Minh Hoang (one of our Directors) on successfully completing the 21km Chevron City to Surf for ACTIV fun run. Minh made it safely across the line in 2 hours, 23 mins. It is a solid effort especially when towards the end of the course and he had to tackle those hills around Perry Lakes.
Minh has already got his sights set on another half marathon later this year.
Congratulations Minh, an awesome effort!!
Congratulations Warren on completing the 2014 Rottnest Channel Swim
February 26th, 2014
Our congratulations go out to Warren Salamone (one of our Directors) on successfully completing the 19.7km HBF Rottnest Channel Swim. Warren, backed by an awesome support crew, made it safely across to Rottnest in 6 hours, 15 mins. With Perth’s fantastic weather helping Warren’s cause, everything came together on the day just nicely, stingers aside! Congratulations Warren, an awesome effort!!
Warren would like to thank everyone who supported him with words of encouragement and/or by donating to the Classroom of Hope. Warren is extremely proud to advise that more than $2,000 was raised. This is a fantastic result and one which Warren says “is much more important than that of completing the crossing given it will make a significant difference to the lives of underprivileged children in Cambodia”.
Once again, congratulations Warren!
For those who have not donated and would like to support Classroom of Hope, the donations page will remain open until 15 March (see: http://funds4coh.gofundraise.com.au/page/SalamoneW).
