A roster will be drawn up for Term 2 onwards

Fundraising:

Cricket event – Rose sent an email to enquire if we can tie this in with an “all sports” night, no reply as yet. To be followed upon.

Raffle– general consensus is that a car / tinny is too much of a risk if all tickets aren’t sold.

Richard will look into quotes for TV & DVD / Sound System / ipod and docking station.

We need to look into limitations of a substantial raffle and whether permits are needed.

It was thought $5/ ticket is ample to charge people.

Raceday – to request more information

Shave for Cure:

-Tina has access to Security Guards for no charge if required due to possibility of high profile players in attendance

-A gold coin donation on entry will boost funds raised
