A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL OUR SPONSORS

We would like to thank the following sponsors for their very generous support, as without them the NonStop Trials Academy would not exist.
It is a credit to Nelson that so many local business owners are supporting the endeavors and vision of the NonStop team.
We look forward to continuing this relationship with our existing sponsors, and new sponsors as they join us.

Ian Parkes & Family - Punawai

We would like to acknowledge Ian Parkes and family for their enthusiasm in supporting the NonStop Trials Park and Adventure Tours, by making their property available. It is their belief in families sharing time together whether in Sport or fun and young people being given a great opportunity to develop skills and self esteem, while enjoying a beautiful environment, that make this project possible. They never show any surprise at what turns up next at the property to be built into obstacles at the Park! Their encouragement to Stephen through all the hard yards has always inspired him to keep the final goal in mind. Many thanks to Helen and her husband, the late Norm Parkes, who started the idea, which has been carried on by their son Ian and his wife Sue and family Nicola, Bradley and Hamish.

Many thanks to Robert and Jane Eggers and their team at Goldpine who have been a major Sponsor in the development of the NonStop Trials Academy Park. Their willingness to provide the materials used in the construction of the Park's man-made obstacles has given it a unique appeal. Mr Eggers is very supportive in the community believing that major effort should be supported. He is right behind Stephen Oliver's dream.

Stephen Oliver's business of Nelvac Homes Services has sponsored the creation of the NonStop Trials Academy with hundreds of labour hours. Without it the Trials Park would not exist.

Hirequip has provided much needed Equipment for use in the construction of the NonStop Trials Academy Park.
Jeff, Senior Branch Manager Nelson, has been very encouraging in getting the Park off the ground. He very much believes in Young people having a sporting interest to keep them challenged and motivated.

Many thanks must go to Steve Page and his team at Waimea Weekly as they are generously supportive of community projects and regional sport. They support the sentiment that 'A Child in Sport Stays out of Court'.

The Nelson Division of Works Infrastructure have been supporting the NonStop Trials Academy with their vision by providing a supply of large quarry rocks to enhance the manmade section of the park with natural challenging obstacles.

We would like to acknowlege the very generous donation of ready-mix from Allied Concrete, used in a new section being prepared for the NZ National Trials Championships, to be held in Nelson in October.
This generous help of product, along with the driver and his truck to deliver the load, have saved the team at NonStop a considerable amount of work to complete the new rock sections in time for the event. The ease with which the concrete could be applied just in the right spot and the speed of having the job finished within the day reinforces how great the help from our sponsors is in the success of this on-going project.

In anticipation of the 3-Day NZ National Trials Championships being held in Nelson at Labour Weekend (Oct 21-23), the team at NonStop Trials Academy have been working with Taylors Contracting to construct a top class course for the first day of competition.
Many thanks to Matt Taylor for the supply of large rocks, and the truck and driver to get them to the Park.
