Dale Hunt – Group Chief Executive Officer, Mounties Group
In 2006, when time had taken its toll on the grand old lady by the sea, a decision was made to amalgamate Harbord Diggers with a like-minded club. A union with Mounties Group was prepared and the vision to develop the site enabling a continued community was kept alive by the foresight of the Board of Directors. Mounties Group clubs are truly local institutions and continue to service the needs of members across all generations.
Putting back into the community is the backbone of Mounties Group. The redevelopment of Harbord Diggers brought together wisdom and insight from many industries. This partnership aimed to fulfil the vision of our great leaders and create a global benchmark for intergenerational living. The Mounties Group mission is to create exceptional experiences; moments that enrich lives and strengthen community. Within our set of values is to ‘rise by lifting others’, this means it is our duty to contribute to our community and every time we engage with it, we must leave it richer than before. For this we have to be innovative, exciting and choose courage over comfort.
