Biography

Born and raised in the industrial town of Gladstone in Central Queensland, Heath’s interests growing up revolved solely around sport. He was happy whether it be standing at the crease facing a quick or the physical confrontation of the various forms of Rugby or AFL football. Upon leaving school Heath initially entered the construction industry before joining the aluminium industry in his early twenties. He returned to his passion of the building industry in 2004 where he predominately built residential housing under the “Courtney Homes by Design” banner. Heath entered into racing administration in Toowoomba, Qld, through his passion for the industry and thoroughbred ownership. Toowoomba is a very busy racing precinct with 500+ horses in work per day and 46 race meets a year. This ensured Heath had a solid grounding into how to prepare, run, and turnaround a weekly racing facility, while ensuring the seven day a week training facility operated efficiently. He brings to the Scone Race Club a strong work ethic and business acumen achieved through not only his time in racing, but also his many years spent in the Construction and Aluminium industries. The setting of both new and personal challenges has always driven Heath to seriously consider exciting opportunities when they arise, and such an opportunity presented itself with a move to Scone. Heath joins a race club steeped in tradition, though one looking to expand and evolve itself into the busier facility the Upper Hunter so rightly deserves. The Scone Race Club is priveledged to have the support and partnership of some of the most respected names in the industry. Having the chance to learn from and work alongside such industry stakeholders, while enjoying the quiet country lifestyle Scone provides, was too hard to ignore. When not at the races, Heath can be found spending leisure time with his family and friends, attending the local gym, and supporting his much loved Geelong Cats.

Biography

Born in Tamworth Donna grew up on a dairy farm near Aberdeen and credits her wonderful work ethic to growing up with a large family on the land. After finishing school at Scone High, she moved to Sydney, then Queensland, working in administration and hospitality, before returning to the Upper Hunter in her late 20’s. Donna started working casually for the Scone Race Club in the late 1990’s as a cleaner and bar attendant while completing a business degree to update and improve her skill set. In 2006 the opportunity for a more permanent position was offered as Track Supervisor, Events Manager and as a member of the Track Maintenance team, which she accepted with her well known enthusiasm. Donna holds an invaluable amount of knowledge on all things Scone Race Club, and has a terrific grasp on how the Racing Industry functions. Due to this knowledge and her willingness to accept new challenges, Donna moved into the role of Operations Manager in 2011, where she has continued to expand her knowledge in every facet of racing. Mostly found in the administration area these days, she is still required to oversee many areas of the clubs operations, as we remain a small hard working team, and Donnas devotion to the club highlights this. She looks forward to the many wonderful changes and bright future of the Scone Race Club, and feels privileged to be a part of the team. When not working, Donna loves to relax by simply spending time with her family and friends.
