PAST STOMPS...
Stompin Friday 1. 28th January 2005. $4,000 - Tsunami disaster
Supported by the wonderful music of Annie and the Armedillos. The $4000 raised from Stomp1 (January 2005) had a wonderful snow ball effect. This money was topped up by the Rotary Club of Canberra Burley Griffin to US$3725 then sent to their Rotary Sister Club in Kandy Sri Lanka to purchase a fishing boat (including outboard and nets) for a family in a fishing village devastated by the tsunami. On 16 June the President of the Rotary Club of Kandy, Shamil Peiris, advised that our contribution was pooled with funds raised locally, and a matching grant (No. 55540) from the Rotary Foundation. The total raised, including the matching grant, totalled a whopping US$24,000!! This resulted in 15 fishing boats plus support for Tsunami Orphaned children. The boats have since been delivered last August 2005 and a plaque has been attached to 6 boats.

Winter Camp provides an opportunity for CanTeen members to link together, socialise, share their experiences and create lasting bonds with other young people living with cancer. A total of 39 Members attended the camp (24 from the ACT & Southern NSW Division and 15 from Tasmania). Some of the activities set to challenge Members on camp included, rope climbing and buggy driving, tobogganing, scrap booking their memories, and, of courseERock'n' Roll dancing, as requested by those Members who attended Stomp2.
