I rise tonight to quickly talk about a great sporting organisation within the electorate of Petrie—that is, the Redcliffe Police Citizens Youth Club. I would like to acknowledge Sgt Peter Parkes from the Redcliffe Police Citizens Youth Club and Mr Noel Powell who dedicate hours of their time every week on a volunteer basis to help the youth on the Redcliffe peninsula. They are doing a fantastic job raising money. They are about to do another program called Time 4 Kids, where they lock up people like me—and my new haircut which I have just had done, so I will look good there! They raise lots of money every year for local youth on the Redcliffe peninsula.

At the Redcliffe Police Citizens Youth Club there are hundreds of volunteers in different sports and thousands of club members. I would particularly like to acknowledge the Hantokan Judo Club. I would like to also acknowledge Mr Darryl Keys, Mr Kelly Croton, Mr Brad Robinson, Mr Kent Bulger and Mrs Lindsay Bulger. These people have been volunteering with judo for the last 25 years; literally hundreds peoples have come through their club. They are helping boys and girls become young men and young women. They deserve to be congratulated. Thank you to the Hantokan Judo Club for what they do.
