Hazell Bros Point to Pinnacle Launch
16/10/2007
Hazell Bros Group today announced its major sponsorship of the 2007 Point to Pinnacle. Hazell Bros Group Director Robert Hazell said this is the first year of Hazell Bros being the naming rights sponsor of the race.
"Hazell Bros Group is extremely proud to be associated with this iconic event," Mr Hazell said.
Every year, the Point to Pinnacle event poses a challenge to elite endurance runners, walkers, and teams: to scale Hobart's backdrop - Mount Wellington.
On November 18, 1200 people will approach the Point to Pinnacle in many different ways - in fancy dress, as a team, to reach the top, to improve fitness, or to win. The usual breakdown is around 400 runners and 800 walkers from Tasmania and interstate.
Current title-holders Kim and Jenny Gillard will be defending their titles this year, racing 22 kilometres from Wrest Point to Mount Wellington, 1270m above sea level.
"Hazell Bros actively supports cultural, educational, and physical wellbeing within the community," Mr Hazell said.
Hazell Bros Group itself will have more than 15 walkers and runners entered in the event.
"The Point to Pinnacle aligns with our family business and employer of choice philosophy.
"We are a proudly Tasmanian Company, supporting a uniquely Tasmanian event."
The Hazell Bros Point to Pinnacle will be held on 18 November 2007.
