Graeme is a teacher at Kelso High and a councillor on the local council. I first heard of Graeme several years ago when Kelso High was destroyed by fire. Graeme takes his students each year to big events in Sydney and he managed to get a lot of media coverage about his initiative and about his school and the students of Kelso High.
I was not surprised to find that he was happy to lend his support to my walk. It was great to meet him and he joined several others in keeping me company for the first five kilometres of the trip to Lithgow. Graeme's commitment to his community was obvious from his conversation on our walk.
Kylie and Helen are members of the Relay for Life committee in Bathurst. They have a very successful Relay and obviously put in a great deal of work. Andrew Penman was full of praise for Kylie's work as Chair and the work of the committee. It was wonderful to spend the first hour of the day's walk getting to know such generous and committed people.
