Since we launched our Redevelopment Appeal in 1994, over $3 million has been raised and a number of significant projects completed for the benefit of our entire community. Thank you to those who have given and continue to give their support to Castlemaine Health in so many ways.
Thank you to all the runners and walkers, sponsors and volunteer helpers who made the inaugural Fun Run on Sunday October 4th 2009 such a success. Two routes of 5km and 10 km let everyone choose their level of participation. Both routes ran from the Castlemaine Oval on Camp Reserve, up Gingell Street then in a wide circuit around the hospital and the botanic gardens (two circuits for the 10km route), returning back down Gingell Street to the Oval. A total of 191 men, women and children entered, as individual or team entries, and raised $4,500 as well as enjoying a fun day out. Hospital CEO Graem Kelly handed out prizes to the winners of each category, and the list of results can be found at the Run The 'Maine website.
This year two teams, comprising 23 riders and support crew participated in the annual Murray to Moyne Cycle Relay raising money for Castlemaine Health. The ride aims at inspiring people who would not normally undertake such an experience to fulfil a major personal achievement. To enhance this aim, local businesses, members of the community, friends and staff members sponsor the riders in their fundraising efforts. As well as personal sponsorship, the teams organise a number of fundraising events including BBQ's, a raffle, mail-out to the community and a wine fundraiser. In 2010 riders raised a total of $31,592.
