Tigers Sponsors Day
The Tigers Sponsors Day last Saturday at the Margaret Donoghoe
Sportsground proved successful with many of its Corporate Sponsors
in attendance.
The Club is fortunate to have many local business houses associated
with the organisation and most are active participants of the Club.
Although our Major Corporate Sponsor Garry Sykes from Dairy
Farmers (Capitol Chilled Foods Australia) could not be
in attendance he was well represented by Rowan Johnstone. Rowans
son Stephen represented Master School Portraits Canberra
after he had completed playing for St Edmunds in their Under 16
Grade upset win over the local Tigers team !!!
Christine Walters and Marg Andrew from Tobin Brothers
are always welcomed guests of the Club as are representatives of
Carlton Untied Breweries (Michael Niesen), Canberra
Trophy Centre (Darryl and Robyn Jenkins), Tony
Innaimo Transport (Tony Innaimo), Bank of Queensland
(Ross and Julie Liddle).
Newcomers to the Tigers Club as Major Sponsors are Bing
Lee and were represented by Peter Scott and Cathy Chaffey.
Frank Barbaro and Frank Palombi are long time sponsors
of both the Junior and Senior organisations as are the Brights,
Jill and Nicole and the Club would not be the same without
the support of Shaun and Debbie O Neill.
Whilst many could not attend, they forwarded their apologies including
Paul Walshe from ActewAGL and Bruce and Fran Morrison
from Morrisons Newsagency. Deidre Gisik
was also an apology and we all know were husband Fred was assisting
as the Clubs chief Sports Medicine Trainer on the field.
Patrick Exton - another major Sponsor of the Tigers through SWIRL
Café in Kingston once again provided magnificent catering
enjoyed by all in attendance.
Attending a Tigers function for the first time was Diane O Hara
representing TransACT along with husband Bob with
Ken Sissons being in attendance also for the first time having just
come on board as a participant of the Alan Muir Foundation through
the business of Country Style Windows.
Other representatives of the Alan Muir Foundation in attendance
were Brian Quade, Matthew Weickhardt and Jane Haddock.
Former Tigers Chairman Wally Gisik attended representing Maxwells
Real Estate while former Champion fullforward Allan Mapleson
was in attendance representing All About Vending.
Overall it was a fantastic outing for the Clubs sponsors made better
with the knowledge that the Tigers had won all three grades on the
day.
