 The Wakatipu Trails Trust has appointed a new CEO Kaye Parker to replace Renee Bowman who has returned to Australia for family reasons.

Chairman Terry Stevens praises the impact made by Ms. Bowman. "The Trust has made excellent progress over the past year and we are very grateful to Renee for her significant contribution," said Stevens.

Wakatipu Trails Trust is a registered charity dedicated to the development of a network of public trails around the Wakatipu basin. To achieve this it needs the help and support of people who believe in their cause.

Kaye Parker will take up her new role shortly, when a replacement CEO for Cure Kids has been appointed.

Stevens said, "Kaye has had nine years leading one of the country's most respected charities and we look forward to utilising her fund raising and business skills so that the Wakatipu Trails Trust can progress rapidly with its vision of a world class network of trails throughout the Wakatipu basin."
