Alan Blinn and Simone Moore Memorial Fund
The Alan Blinn and Simone Moore Memorial Fund was established by NSWISA to honour two of our Administrators and Officials who lost their lives on Sydney Harbour on 28th March 2007. Both Alan and Simone shared a passion for skating and contributed hugely not only to skating in Australia but to skating around the world. Alan was an International Judge and President of NSWISA. Simone, an ISU Championship Judge and International Referee, had been newly appointed to the NSWISA Council. Their legacy will assist future generations of aspiring skaters to further develop their talent and achieve their full potential so that they may realise their skating dreams.
