Kawana Relay for Life BBQ discussion

Hi Guys
I said yes to this but we would only need half the members to help that we have at university as CALPAC will look after the other half.
Hope you are agreeable to this.

I actually said to Ross that it would be a good idea, but had not committed anything so hope we can put a team together.

Hi Tom
Both Caloundra Rotary Clubs are willing to provide volunteers to cook for "Kawana Relay for Life" on the 25th May.
We have several BBQ's and a Marquee.
Maybe we can discuss the logistics at little closer to the date.

Dear Ross,
I hope this email finds you well.


Kristy has asked me to provide a little information on the Kawana Relay for Life.

This year's Kawana Relay For Life is anticipated to have 60 teams entering and together aiming to raise over $100,000 which will fund vital cancer research, support services, education & early detection programs in the community.

The Sunshine Coast Region has had face to face counselling introduced to the Maroochydore office since July 2011 and in December 2012 we added a wig library - allowing cancer paitents to meet with a local hairdresser who styles and advises patients' and loans out a wig for their time of need both of these services are at no cost.

Cancer affects every Queenslander in some way. Each year, more than 21,000 Queenslanders will be diagnosed with cancer and more than 9000 will die from the disease.

By partnering with the leading anti-cancer organisation in Queensland, you will be linking with an organisation dedicated to cancer control.

We are currently looking for a community organisation to cook the breakfast for all of our event participants. We have been successful in gaining donations for all breakfast foods, we simply need it to be cooked and served. Breakfast will be a simple Bacon and Egg Roll, but it's quite a challenge when there are 500 people to feed!

We would love it if you can come on board and help with breakfast, the grounds also have a few extra BBQ's that you can use to help cook.

Please contact me on 07 5451 6003 or email tomturner@canerqld.org.au<mailto:tomturner@canerqld.org.au>  should you require any further information regarding the Kawana Relay For Life.

In Anticipation of your support - Thankyou.

Regards,
Tom Turner
Relay For Life Coordinator, Sunshine Coast
