Feeling INTREPID???? Then you need to come to our Dinner...

Here is another great reason to come to our dinner.

Allow me to introduce you to Chris Allen, veteran, author and so much more. 

Chris Allen was born in Perth, Western Australia. A former paratrooper, Chris served with the Australian Army including attachments to the New Zealand Army, the British Parachute Regiment and deployments to Africa, South East Asia and Central America. He retired at the rank of Major.

In addition to his military career, Chris led security operations for a major international aid agency in East Timor during the 1999 emergency, oversaw the upgrade of Counter Terrorism First Response measures at Sydney Airport in the wake of the September 11 attacks of 2001, and in 2003 when protestors painted ‘No War’ on the sails of the Sydney Opera House, he was headhunted to take over the protection of the iconic landmark.

In 2008 he was appointed Sheriff of New South Wales, one of Australia’s most historic law enforcement appointments. 

As if that is not enough, Chris is a successful author and he is generously donating a complete set of his books to be auctioned on the night.  This will include his four full novels: Defender, Hunter, Avenger and Helldiver, and the short story (novella) Ranger. 

But wait, there is more.  Chris is happy to sign them on the night for the lucky winner!

What a great Christmas gift that would be for someone special... or heck!!! Even for yourself!

So what do you need to do to be there.... 

The tickets for the Aussie Hero Quilts Annual Thank You Dinner on 2 November at Old Parliament House are available from TryBooking via this  Link

As well as Chris's books we have lots of other exciting Auction Items as well... quilts, laundry bags and more... 

We hope you will join us in thanking the volunteers who give their time and materials so selflessly all year.  

Dont forget to buy your tickets. 

See you there...
