The Board Meeting started in 2004 on the Sunshine Coast. The event is run by a dedicated group of volunteers and raises much-needed funds for local disabled children and their families, who have fallen through the cracks of Government support and are doing it extremely tough financially. The Board Meeting – Northern Rivers Chapter We have established a local group of volunteers to bring The Board Meeting to the Northern Rivers. We seek to repeat the success of the Sunshine Coast by bringing local businesses together to raise funds for our local kids in need. 2015 Entry Form Counselling Help Pty Ltd (ACN 062 489 838) trading as The Board Meeting Corporate Surf Event Northern Rivers Committee Peter Dewar 0487 922 499 Kim Dewar 0417 702 239 Paul Spooner Simon Jones Gary Chigwidden Ron Hughes Debby Ginger David Clark Website Facebook Be part of this event and enjoy the best feeling in the world Surfing for Local Kids in Need [email protected] https://www.theboardmeeting.org.au https://www.facebook.com/theboardmeetingnorthernrivers With the generosity of the local surfing and business community The Board Meeting Northern Rivers Chapter will launch its first event Saturday 21st March 2015 Entry Form The Board Meeting – Surf Event Each year we draw on the enthusiasm and generosity of the Surfing and Business communities to participate in an amateur surfing competition where the emphasis is on having fun and helping raise funds for the charity. It is also a great opportunity to get businesses together in the water, have a good time whilst giving something back to the community and enjoy the best feeling of helping kids in need. Local businesses enter teams of four surfers who take to the water in heats to battle it out. The competition is open to young, old, amateur, pro, male and female. Since 2005 The Board Meeting has raised close to $400,000 for local kids and their families in need. The overheads are minimal to ensure every single dollar goes into supporting the beneficiaries and their families.
