TRISH MAY

Trish joined as a Trustee during the early stages of the Lake Dunstan Cycle and Walking Trail construction. The trail's opening in May 2021 was a memorable day for her, as she witnessed enthusiastic cyclists on the opening day and has continued to see incredible numbers of participants enjoying the trail since.

Growing up on the very flat Canterbury Plains, Trish's growing passion for cycling was inevitable. From riding the Raleigh Twenty of her school days, to relying on her trusty 10-speed bike as a student, cycling was always a vital means of transport.

Today, Trish enjoys exploring the trails around Central Otago and the Southern Lakes regions on her trail bike. 

Living in Queenstown since 2011, Trish not only has a vital role on the Trust but is also actively involved in the tourism industry, providing sales, marketing, and communications services to businesses in the sector.
