New BBQ Fundraising Location - 2nd Saturday monthly



I am pleased to advise UltraTune Beenleigh has offered the Group a BBQ Fundraising slot every 2nd Saturday of the month, starting on April 12. I would like to thank the Davies family for arranging this with the store.
 
In the next two weeks a new roster will be put out for you all to commit to one slot  - as it is local I am expecting every family to assist us with this. You will only be asked to do one BBQ slot, if the hours remain the same as a AutoBarn. 
 
For that that have already done a BBQ this year at AutoBarn, you will not be required to commit again as you have done the one BBQ asked of you. But please feel free to help if we are short handed.
 
If you cannot commit to the date please seek a replacement and swap, we man just enough for the day and  last minute cancellation making it hard for organisers to be prepared and ensure enough hands available for the event.

  • March 29 - Bush Dance (Cuboree fundraiser) 
  • Apr 12 - UltraTune BBQ
  • May 2 -  Twilight Markets Cake Stall (tbc)
  • May 3 - Bethania School Fete - Car Wash (tbc)

Fundraising Update - February Wrap


Car Boot Sale & Car Wash
AND THE RESULT IS! 
Thank you to everyone that participated/donated good for the weekend fundraiser. It was such a good day and I believe it was fairly successful for Stall holders.
 
After all the counting and items purchased taken out the result of the efforts was:    
$860
 
Money raised goes towards the den maintenance and towards the much needed BBQ Trailer we are seeking.


Cuboree Bush Dance - March 29 at 4pm
 BUSH DANCE - FAMILY NIGHT OUT
 
 The Cuboree Fundraising team  invite you to attend a  Family Bush Dance.
 
On March 29 at 4pm, 
Cost will be $5 for entry per person
 
                        
 
 
          Local Country and Western band along. 
 
If you remember going to a bush dance come along as this is what we are running on the night, Line dancing, bush dancing and maybe something else.  
 
Invite your loved ones, school friends, neighbours  to come along for the 'shin-ding'! 
 


BBQ Fundraisers - New location
NEW BBQ LOCATION  FOUND
 
I am happy to advise that we have found another BBQ venue and I am in the process of sorting out dates before I announce the name. At this time I am hoping we can keep the original dates we had planned. To those that placed their names for the next BBQ we may still call upon you for that weekend.
 
 



NEXT CAKE STALL - MAY 2
It was wonderful to have so many cakes on the weekend. We sold 95% of them by 12pm.
 
At this stage I am looking to hold another Cake Stall on May 2 at the Twilight Markets at Windaroo State School. Please have pans and rollers at the ready for this one.
 
I will also need people to help man the stall on that night. If you are willing to assist please let me know.
