[quote="aceman"]Okay, here's a challenge to all safooty.net posters.
This Sunday between 12 noon & 4.00pm, the Northgate Community & Sports Club is putting on a Family Day to assist the Victorian Bushfire Appeal.
All bar takings during this 4 hour period (excl GST) will be donated, there will be raffles, mini auction, free face painting & giveaways for kids, Bar B. Q, Ice Cream machine and many other interesting things on the day.
Staff have donated their time and will be on hand to do all of the work.
Here's your chance to support a worthwhile cause and meet Aceman at the same time, come along for a beer,some fun and a chat. Aceman will buy the first drink for the first 20 safooty.net posters that come up and introduce themselves to him.
Come along and help a great cause, lets see how many we can get there from this forum.
A very big "thank you" to all who supported today's Bushfire Appeal day, special thanks to FC for representing this site and for putting her hand in her pocket in aid of this worthwhile cause. Unfortuately, noone else took up the challenge so FC got her free drinks and spent a fair bit of time there with us.
To those who are interested, just under $5K was raised, so it was a worthwhile exercise and thanks go to those who arranged the day, donated items for auction or otherwise and to the club management and staff for their contribution.
The cricket match was played in great spirit, the scorebook at the end showed the footballers were the victors but I think if they were audited, we'd find a few extra runs might have been thrown in to make that happen.
Man of the Match was Daniel Hargraves with 104 off 60 balls.
Many thanks and well done to everyone!
Always behind the 8 ball
