Thank you!
We last did this 11 years ago. And again, on October 27, the experience aboard the Mari Nawi (“Big Canoe”) with the crew of the Tribal Warrior was amazing.
Congratulations to CEO Shane Phillips and all at the Tribal Warrior for 25 years of maritime training and transformative social enterprise. And thanks to our expert hosts and guides, TJ, Gus, Rhonda, Matt and Brock.
The South Sydney Herald fundraiser cruise on October 27 sailed through Sydney Harbour (Warrane), taking in sights of cultural and historical significance including Dubbagullee (Benelong Point), Gubbuh Gubbuh (Middle Head), Boora Birra (Bradleys Head) and Woolloomooloo (“place of plenty”).
We docked at Billong-olola (Clark Island, Sydney Harbour National Park) for late afternoon cultural education and fun, traditional dance and song (led by Blake, Brock and Keara), and a short walking tour.
Thanks to John and Ron for cooking and serving dinner — sizzling sausages and crisp falafel, fresh bread rolls, juicy apples, mandarins and bananas.
The sun cast a warm glow. The breeze carried sounds and scents of the sea, eucalypts, she-oaks …
Louisa, Lyn and Andrew led a trivia session with prizes from Better Read Than Dead bookstore, Hum On King record shop, Sunlite Mitre 10, the Dendy Newtown, the Palace Central Park.
The mood was easygoing and inclusive, with volunteers and supporters sharing conversation and commitment to local community.
The Mari Nawi brought us back to Circular Quay as the light turned from soft blue to pink, shades of purple and orange.
Thanks to Anthony and Cecil at Club Redfern, Con and Abu at Redfern Woolworths, Lee, Graeme, Luke, Mark, Michelle and everyone who purchased or donated a ticket.
