TROJANS TREK RECEPTION AT GOVERNMENT HOUSE ADELAIDE

In response to an offer from the Governor of SA, His Excellency The Honourable Hieu Van Le AC, 62 supporters of the Foundation attended a reception at Government House on the evening of 13 Nov.

The ballroom provided a fitting backdrop to the gathering, many of whom had not met face to face with the Board or each other.  The support which had been provided over 10 years of operation was acknowledged by His Excellency in a stirring speech.

TROJAN’S TREK – GOVERNMENT HOUSE FUNCTION

It was with gratitude that I accepted the invitation of the State Governor for him to host the supporters of the program to drinks at Government House on 6 December. As with all functions of this nature it was hard to draw the line at the agreed number of invitations to be issued. However, this was achieved with 50 supporters dressed in the appropriate finery attending. Both the Governor and his wife Liz were in attendance to welcome and chat with the group. The occasion provided recognition of their collective input in a relaxed atmosphere in a beautiful environment which could never have been achieved within my limited resources. It was also beneficial for the group to gain awareness of the breadth and scope of the program and each parties input.
