to those who have met me or have actually seen me and ran away, you would have noticed I am a small petite chap!
Well on the path to a new me I need to change my sorry ways, no I an not weighed down by all that astro gear I seem to have......
Now I don't make decisions lightly and if i commit i nearly always follow through with what I intend to do. I intend to create a team to participate in this event. At the moment it will be me and Tania, I hope to have others commit to the event. Note you have to be in the hunter, and be available on those dates 4&5 november. Knowing my luck it will be a new moon???
If nothing else I urge you to either to think about what this event means, and either give a donation, or if you are local in the hunter and want to be a part of this join the team when it is formed and raise money and sponsership. There are costs involved for joining the team (when I form it) which are organisational costs as outlaid in the website 11 or 15 dollars per person registered.
I intend to attend this event as a mark of respect for my wifes father and My Dad who both died of cancer, as well as for other family members marred by this disease. I have been marred by this insidious disease as well, back in 1995, and it continues to hang as a cloud over me - never knowing when it will rear its ugly head up again. Never take anything for granted.
Even if you dont participate or wish to donate - do something for your own community and get involved at your own local level. you never know the life you might save might be your own one day, and that dollar or two you gave or raised could have been the difference
I should have some more details by mid next week.
