So, i won't be doing the usual Monthly Newsletters anymore as it seems my time is getting much, much busier than i ever intended. A Few Quick Blog Posts a month should cover the basics.
Since my last update we have enjoyed and experienced some amazing events and even more awesome memories.
SUNDAY AUGUST 18TH - DRAGONS CONVOY ROUND - NRL - WOLLONGONG
We had our first Major event hire at the St George Dragons NRL for Kids Big Day Out and the i98fm Illawarra Convoy Round. Not only entertaining kids in a disability inclusive safe space but also raising funds for Convoy! Amy and the team made us all feel so welcome and comfortable and Ghost Spidey and I had an awesome time together.
AUGUST 29th EB GAMES & STARLIGHT FOUNDATION FUNDRAISER
A Brilliant night with our entire team of Heroes. Raising Funds for Starlight Foundation at EB Games Wollongong.
SEPTEMBER 7TH - TV & FILM NOSTALGIA FESTIVAL IN MUSWELLBROOK
What an amazing First year for this Festival. I cannot wait to go again next year and hopefully bring more of my team along for the ride. But it was incredible to see a byunch of different Era Themed Tents with the magic of TV & Film in each and everyone, not to mention the roving entertainment from everyone on the outside.
WAS A STAND OUT!
SEPTEMBER 7TH WONDER WALK 50KM - Mary Mouawad 50KM Walk for i98FM Illawarra Convoy (Illawarra Community Foundation)
RAISING AROUND $7,000 ON MARY's WALK FROM AUSTINMER BEACH CAFE TO ALBION PARK RAIL CONVOY HQ. An Incredible effort to Mary and the entire team that helped bring it all together.
SEPTEMBER 14TH EVENT CINEMAS SHELLHARBOUR - TRANSFORMERS ONE PREMIERE WEEKEND
THIS WAS SPIDEY'S FIRST OPTIMUS PRIME APPEARANCE WITH THE COSPLAY GUARDIAN PROMOTING TRANSFORMERS ONE PREMIERE!
Along with the amazing Con Loebler aka The Cosplay Guardian, we had an absolute blast being together for the first time. It was a super surreal moment for Con especially seeing a Transformer next to his amazing Bumblebee for once and a huge wake up call for me, seeing that i can step outside of my comfort zone and try new things.
The Public agreed. They absolutely loved us!
SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 29th - SUPER HERO SCAVENGE FOR CONVOY 2024
ILLAWARRA LIGHT RAILWAY MUSEUM.
OUR BIG EVENT OF THE YEAR! 12 Months + Sweating and working hard to get this one together. We had an even bigger rack of heroes this year including our very new Members Grace & Nathan joining us as X-23 & Thor. Roving Entertainment from STEAMPUNK VAGABONDS and some Real Life Fighting from the KNIGHTS OF ALBION!
We had amazing Stallholders which included Artists, Sweets and Treats, Face Painting and Pop Culture Merch.
Of Course the Train Rides kept the party going and the wonderful staff at the Illawarra Light Railway Museum helped to put on an amazing day and a cool Scavenge Hunt.
While the struggling economy and the bad weather outlook made things a bit harder this year to fundraise, i will not give up, especially with the feedback given. Stick with us and next year will be quite different & Possibly a different location TBA!
Raising just under $7,000 for i98FM Illawarra Convoy (Illawarra Community Foundation) and helping Tiny Tins & Wollongong Crane Trucks take the lead in the Trucks down the mountain this year (We Hope).
SEPTEMBER 28th to OCTOBER 11th SCHOOL HOLIDAYS!
SCIENCE SPACE UNIVERSITY OF WOLLONGONG (UOW) SUPER HERO SCIENCE
Last but not least, we have our 2nd Major Event Hire for University of Wollongong's Science Space all School Holidays. Their Super Hero Science Program is on and we are enjoying every single day we can be there over the holidays. I am so thankful of our amazing team New and Old. I cant wait to see what the rest of the year brings us!
