50 Shades of G’day

Happy 2020!   Happy Australia Day!
What’s Australia Day without a beer and a barbie and good old fashion aussie slang G’day Mate, Fair Dinkum!!  Work on Australia Day….Flamin’ unAustralian!!

It’s not been the start we had hoped for but we need to be a rainbow in someone’s cloud.  So we have got together with some likeminded friends and decided to donate all proceeds of our Valentines Day Dance to the Firey’s Fundraiser.

Read below….. All you need to know in 5 minutes!

Valentines Firey’s Fundraiser
Hurry before its too late! Tickets for the Fundaiser have been selling fast.  If you have
tickets in hand you will have express entry on the night.  Please note tickets do not
ensure a table but the club is doing its best to have seating for 180. It’s first in best dressed on the night when the doors open.

We are very grateful to our Volunteers who have donated their time on the night and
especially to Gav Bean and Toni & the Rhythm Cats who have donated their services for the event.  There has been such great support from the dancers providing us with
raffle gifts and prizes. Remember 100% of all donations and money raised on the night including door entry fee is going to the NSW RFS. There are no administration fees.   One of the hardest things I had to learn in life was to ask for help and when I finally did doors opened for me.  Now it’s time to give back. We collectively belong to a community and have a platform where we can bring people together and make good from it.
Thank you for your support.
