There were many wonderful businesses, organisations and people who sponsored the triathlon event, making it possible!
There had been overwhelming support from the community to sponsor the triathlon event. They gave heartily, happily and they gave heavily to the cause. MUCH MUCH appreciated thanking you :)
Responsible for making grants and applications was Sheryl. Event and cockle sponsors were pursued by Sheryl, Jane, Mina and Marcelle. Spot prize sponsors were pursued by Jane, Marcelle and Mina.
