Have fun and help kids from the bush
The Bush to Beach fundraising evening is held to raise funds to bring school children from Western Queensland to the coast. The 2018 event is on July 14 at the Rainbow Beach Hall, commencing at 6pm.
Tony Stewart explained it is an excellent initiative to support struggling farmers and their families.
“Many Queensland schools now supply children with meals as parents can’t afford to send them to school with enough food.
“I’ve heard some shocking hardship stories, you wouldn’t believe it could happen in this country,” said Tony.
The Bush to Beach Gala is a sit down dinner for approximately 160 people. Rodney Vincent will perform as well as a roving ‘Magic Man’, Tom Stewart. Live auctioneer, John Cochrane will be there. Helping with MC duties will be ABC’s Bruce Atkinson.
This year’s event will be started with dollars in the bank, thanks to a raffle and donations. Generous sponsors are making this evening possible and at last count, 28 new businesses were added to the sponsors board.
