QUEENSLAND RACE DAY

QLD BRANCH

THE NECA QLD BRANCH WAS PLEASED TO HOLD ITS ANNUAL RACE DAY AT DOOMBEN RACECOURSE, BRISBANE ON WEDNESDAY 16 JUNE. THE DAY WAS A GREAT SUCCESS WITH OVER 200 PEOPLE ENJOYING THE BEAUTIFUL WEATHER, FINE FOOD AND FREE-FLOWING DRINKS. NECA’S BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER, CHRISTOPHER GRADWELL, WAS AN EXCELLENT MC WHO KEPT THE CROWD ENTERTAINED FOR THE DAY. EVERYONE HAD A GREAT TIME SOCIALISING AND WATCHING THE RACES.

“The event was such a welcome respite for everyone after all the COVID-19 issues of the past year and a half.” — Peter Lamont, Director ACRS and NECA Senior Policy Advisor

Off the racecourse, we had a number of winners. Best dressed female was Maughen Langer from OTI Power wearing her emerald green pants suite. Jeff Smith of LGL Electrical, took the best dressed male award, with his unique combination of casual attire and cowboy hat, with the lucky door prize won by David Millar of Fredon. Thank you to all Race Day sponsors who donated prizes on the day. NECA would like to thank its Race Day sponsors for their support: Schneider Electric, Haymans, Energy Super, NHP Electrical Engineering, Lawrence & Hanson, IPD Group, WorkPac, ACRS, CNW, TM Scrap Metal and NECA Training and Apprenticeships. As always, it’s hard not to forget the dedication and hard work of NECA’s team for making yet another event a continued success for members.
