A fundraiser for Cancer Council at Don Road Sports Complex – HTC will have a team walking around the Oval from 3 pm Sat 5th November – overnight till 9 am on Sun 6th November.

Anyone can register to be part of our team and nominate when they’d like to walk for 1 – 2 or more hours, walking at your own pace.  HTC will have a tent and all are welcome to bring more tents to sleep overnight.

This is a really fun event with a fantastic atmosphere.  Local entertainment & refreshments are available.

Cost per individual to register is $15 and you get a long sleeved polo shirt.  The expectation is that each team member will individually raise $100 and collectively the club together is expected to raise $1,000 if possible.  We’ll do a sausage sizzle to kick start this effort.  Other ideas are welcome.  Jan Brown is our team leader – Phone: 5962 3191.

Registrations can be done easily on-line. 

1. Register and pay online (Event is under ‘Yarra Ranges’ – Healesville Tennis Club) at www.relayforlife.org.au

2. Call Jan to let her know that you’re going to be apart of this event on 5962 3191

The Book Launch on Sunday 28th August was a massive success and sell out with an estimated crowd of 200.  A wonderful ‘Welcome to Country’ was presented by our own Wurundjeri elder and life member, Dot Peters.  The event was then launched by Cr Terry Avery, Melba Ward – Mayor.  The warm winter sunshine encouraged many of our members and friends to get out on the courts for an enjoyable hit of tennis.  A celebrity exhibition tennis match saw Brian Beers and Chiro Mukerjea challenge Maurice & Wayne Broom which led to a dramatic end with Brian retiring injured.

A huge thanks to all concerned.
