Supporter of the Year Awards

Supporter of the Year Awards 2005

2005 winners – Penny Dudding (NSW) and Robin Kellett (ACT)
Vivienne Gregg accepted on behalf of the absent Penny.

This is awarded around the time of the National Titles, to a supporter, who has been nominated by members, as having made an outstanding or ‘special’ contribution to Dragons Abreast nationally. Nominations must be submitted by member groups. Closing date 20th March 2006. Judging is by a panel drawn from across Australia.

When we use the term supporter we are referring to life partners, family members, friends and those who have a genuine interest in the breast cancer cause – who have chosen to join as members of DAA – some are paddlers and some are not. We also have supporters who are survivors, but choose not to paddle for various reasons.

All our supporters are a valuable part of our organisation and we need to be conscious that we include and acknowledge them. To this end we have, since 2005 introduced the Supporter of the Year Awards.

The nomination takes the form of a letter or submission whereby you share with the panel the examples of what your nominees have done that is special and of impact beyond your own group.

Please submit all nominations to contact@dragonsabreast.com.au
