Thanks
I must admit I was so surprised about how many beautiful people are willing to give up there time and money for a great cause. Over the last few months there has been a lot of people giving up there time in order to get trained for the big event held last Friday morning. The event was based around raising money for canteen (children living with cancer) by doing a Guinness World Record for the most people attending a dance class under water in scuba gear.
A great effort was done by all with over $13,000 being raised in the morning.

I would like to just send out a few Extra Big Thanks…

  • Big thanks to all the Abyss staff for being involved in the event
  • Big thanks to Jason Fedderson for his time in organising the event.
  • Big thanks to Kogarah Bay Dance school for all the training off the left footed divers!
  • EXTRA big thanks to all the participants for raising the money and giving there time up when we understand every one is so busy
And of course a thank you to any one who sponsored the dancers and therefore gave money to a great charity, canteen.

Hope to see you all in the water soon
Rach
