Story
NAME Manuela Berchtold
OCCUPATION Owner / Manager of High Country Fitness and Snow Fitness
GROUP NAME Summit Soul Shakers
I feel honoured to be invited to take part in such a great event, run by such an amazing organisation.
I love being a part of local fundraising efforts where I truly believe we can and will make a difference in our local community and truly believe in everything MCCR stands for and does … plus I look forward to learning more.
I am looking forward to pushing myself way out of my comfort zone and feeling a little scared! ... and looking forward to meeting new people and making new friends along the way.
This is something so completely different for me!
A few fun facts about me:
I'm a Jindabyne local (all my life), attended Jindabyne Primary School & Monaro High School.
My parents moved to Jindabyne from Switzerland and I have dual citizenship with Switzerland & Swiss German was my first language.
I'm a dual Australian Winter Olympian in the sport of Mogul Skiing, representing Australia at the 2002 and 2006 Winter Olympics.
I founded High Country Fitness in June 2006, almost 18 years ago! And Snow Fitness was born almost 10 years ago.
I absolutely love what I do and where I live!
So, to the challenge of raising as much money as possible for such a wonderful cause ... I say, Bring it on!!!
Monaro Committee for Cancer Research Incorporated
The Monaro Committee for Cancer Research was formed in 1996 by the daughter of a young Monaro mother who after a 5 year struggle lost her battle with cancer. Since its inception the mcCr has supported cancer outreach services on Snowy Monaro. In 2007 after much lobbying, a local oncology service was introduced to the Cooma Hospital. Local support raised in excess of $100,000 towards this project and today we have a successful outreach oncology service. mcCr is a local voluntary group of dedicated women working towards further cancer support and services for the Snowy Monaro Region.Your support will enable mcCr to continue this assistance for cancer sufferers.
