FRASER COAST CENTRAL

Dear Members and Supporters,

Lunch with Aussie’s

John Symond

In conjunction with Aussie Hervey Bay, the Chamber is extremely proud to present Aussie’s John Symond for the Chamber’s November function.

John Symond is arguably one of Australia’s favourite Aussies, and he will be visiting Hervey Bay on 13 November 2009 for the opening of Aussie’s new office on Boat Harbour Drive, Pialba.

As part of his visit to the Bay, John will be joining us for lunch as the Chamber’s Keynote Speaker and will share stories of his amazing life journey with us.

John describes his life as a typically Australian one – a happy childhood in Brisbane and Sydney’s west, a near miss with financial failure after the 1987 crash and subsequent emergence as one of Australia’s most inspiring businessmen.

Date: Friday, 13 November 2009
Time: 12.00pm for 12.30pm start
Venue: Hervey Bay Boat Club, Buccaneer Drive, Urangan Marina
Cost: $50 for Members and $60 for Non Members
Member rates apply to members of the Hervey Bay, Maryborough, Burrum
and Tiaro Chambers of Commerce, Fraser Coast Young Professionals,
UDIA and Fraser Coast South Burnett Tourism.

RSVP: On or before Tuesday 10 November 2009 (if not sold out prior)

John- Owner of  the Torbanlea sawmill  Contract Timbers

A POTENTIAL NEW MEMBER OF THE BURRUM CHAMBER

Recently you may have heard of a lone traveller getting attacked and killed on the highway near Gin Gin Qld.

1…It was Johns wifes’ brother. Brutally bashed a couple of weeks ago by a total stranger it seems when he ran out of petrol on the highway. Used dental records etc to identify him.

I was visiting John on another matter when he and his family were making funeral arrangements.

2….He tells me that recently two of his best mates were blown up into little pieces when an industrial accident in Brisbane  involving acetyline and bottled gas took place. Scraping body parts off the walls I was told.

3….Also on top of all this his younger sister was diagnosed with spinal cancer.

I WAS THERE TO VIEW HIS HUGE NEW 15 FT X 5FT X 5FT FISH TANK

A one off creation made from laminated glass specially brought up from Melbourne.

This huge expensive aquarium lay in a grossly mangled shattered pile in the yard at John’s place .

It has self destructed into fragments a few days earlier because of a faulty design he had used to manufacture same.

ALL THIS IN A SHORT SPACE OF A FEW  MONTHS.

THE WORST 4 MONTHS OF MY LIFE WAS HIS COMMENT
