SAUSAGE SIZZLE AT BUNNINGS
This year’s major fundraising event at Bunnings Rosebud raised $1070.40 nett.
There were fewer people around than last year (when our profit was $910) and the strong gusty wind constantly threatened to remove our shelter, so this was a pleasing result given the circumstances.
We are grateful for the donations of bread we received from Baked in Blairgowrie and Bakers Delight in Port Phillip Plaza and for a $40 gift card from Coles Supermarket in Port Phillip Plaza. The sausage from Peninsula Bulk Meats was of good quality and the service was excellent.
Natasha Wicks once again proved a tower of strength, particularly in slicing 15kg of onions, no mean feat! My thanks to her and to everyone else who worked so tirelessly for our Society. - Robert Barnes, Wayne Bastow, Ian & Chris Bowers,
Bill Eagle, Arthur Hicowe, Frank Hindley, Margaret Hindson, Con Mullen,
Bernie Poll, Leon Riley and Des Young. Bev Baker provided me with back-up assistance and the Bunnings staff were very helpful too.
The team effort clocked up 50 volunteer hours
