Farmers impacted by natural disasters have benefited big time from the generous support of donors, who have kicked in well over $250,000 for the bush charity Rural Aid. Inspired by Rural Aid, patron Gina Rinehart, considerably more than $250,000 was raised during Rural Aid’s Lunch Lunch held at the Howard Smith Wharves in Brisbane.

Rowing Australia Chief Executive Sarah Cook said the week was a “fantastic celebration” of the sport at the 2000 Olympic venue. Fittingly, the return to SIRC after five years also fell on the same year as the Paris Olympics and Paralympics, which are the ultimate goal for many who raced here.“It’s been really special to come back here in the Olympic and Paralympic year,” Cook said. “To have the opportunity to be at this fantastic legacy venue to see our Olympians and Paralympians who are preparing for Paris has been extraordinary. So, it’s just been a fantastic celebration.”
