💫The 2026 Paddle

💫The 2026 Paddle Queensland Volunteer of the Year Award Winner is Grant Epple of Currumbin Creek Paddlers Club.

Grant Epple is a name synonymous with Currumbin Creek Paddle Club, where he has dedicated an incredible 28 years to the sport. As Treasurer for nearly two decades, Grant has provided the financial bedrock that allows his club to thrive, but his true impact is measured in people. From his weekly newsletters that never miss a beat—even while he’s on holiday—to his dedicated Saturday morning beginner classes, Grant has personally introduced hundreds of new paddlers to the water, ensuring that everyone, regardless of skill level, feels they truly belong in the paddling community.
Beyond the logistics and the spreadsheets, Grant is a quiet leader who exemplifies the spirit of selfless service. Whether he is managing complex race scores, securing vital community grants, moving ski’s around to adventure paddles, he does so with unwavering positivity and integrity.
Grant doesn’t just help a club run; he builds a culture, leaving a lasting legacy that will benefit Queensland paddling for generations to come.

Congratulations Grant! 👏👏 ... See MoreSee Less
