Familiar face

By Melissa Meehan
A FAMILIAR face has joined the Cardinia Foundation.
Former Pakenham Racing Club event manager Michelle Tones has got on board, and will work as the executive officer for the foundation on a part-time basis.
Ms Tones said she was excited about her new role and made the choice because she wanted to continue the strong relationships she has made in the community through her connections with the racing club.
She will continue to be involved in the Pakenham Business Group and as an event sub committee member for the Pakenham Centenary Show 2011.
Her major goals for the next year is to focus on the Annual Charity Dinner in June – which will be the one event the foundation will hold for 2010.
“We want to raise as much money as possible through the dinner, and the dollar a week campaign,” she said.
“The more we raise – the more we can give back to the community.”
