March for Melanoma 2009
On behalf of the Emily Tapp Melanoma Foundation, I would like to extend a warm thank-you to everyone who took part in making the March for Melanoma another great success for 2009. Although, due to circumstances out of our control, the turnout was slightly down on previous years, the day was still highly successful in raising further awareness and much-needed funds for melanoma research.
In particular, we would like to thank the wonderful performers that took part on the day: the hard-rocking Spazzys, the soulful Shane Pullin and, of course, the hilarious and entertaining Julia Morris. Thank you also to Brodie Young for his seamless hosting duties, as well as all the volunteers who made the entire day run so smoothly. Lastly, we would like to thank our Sponsors and supporters:
