🌟 Appreciation Post 🌟
Our small (but mighty) CMDA Committee of five, has dedicated countless hours, both before the event and throughout the weekend.
But we would also like to extend a few special Thank You’s:
Rob and the staff of Taieri Bowling Club for being so accomodating to our extra needs (and coming to our rescue when we needed it!)
Our awesome stage hand - Arthur Bouman
Our Volunteers:
Margaret Webster for being taxi driver/chauffeur for our judges.
Margaret Flockton and Adele Telfer for helping out with feeding the Committee, Judges and Band.
Tania Graham for being our offsite emergency runner (and on call tech support)
Holly McKnight for taking some time at the door.
Time is free but so precious! A HUGE thank you to you all!!!
Our Judges - you did an amazing (but tough) job! Cheryl Anderson, Kylie Austin-Ward and Dennis August.
Our EPIC band - Saddle Sore. Andy Gilmour, Peter Kesha, Aaron Ives, Phil Doublet.
Our awesome Rhythm Setter - Peter Cairns.
Our amazing Sound guy - Anton Harris.
To our sponsors - running awards can be costly, and they simply wouldn’t be possible with your generous support!! For those who attended, we hope you enjoyed the show and saw the impact you have on supporting our platform for our competitors- the young and young at heart!
Last but not least - our Competitors! There would be NO event without you! Thank you for continuing to support CMDA and making it the amazing quality it is!
Congratulations to everyone who got on that stage and gave it your all!!! (Sometimes just getting ON the stage is the hardest part).
(Disclaimer: if we missed someone, we are truely sorry! Please know that we are so thankful for you all!!!)
Until next year,
CMDA
