HAIGH LYON TEAMS WALK
FOR CHARITY
On 9 April eight people working for or associated with Haigh Lyon will be participating in the Oxfam
Trailwalk at Taupo. Haigh Lyon has two teams of four members each, known as Haigh’s Heroes and Haigh’s Lyons. Personnel from Haigh Lyon are A’lanah Harrison, Chelsea
Crimp, Sam Douglas and Rob
Wills, the others being Louis Thomson (Chelsea’s partner), Mike
Brosnahan (our accountant Jennene’s husband), Bev
Hilton who works in adjoining business premises and friend Andrew
Gordon.
The aim of the exercise is to raise money for charity through Oxfam,
an international
organisation dedicated to relief of poverty – check it out on www.oxfam.org.nz.
Our team members will walk 100kms (yes that’s each, not in relay) on off road
tracks in the Taupo area. Teams stop at dedicated points to check in, rest and
eat, then battle on to finish the event under the cut off time of 36 hours. We
have not set ourselves a goal time but hope to go well under the cut off. We
will walk all night so will be using headlight torches as a guide. In the meantime
we are training hard and having fun doing it.
