The long-standing collaboration shows a strong community commitment to the cause. Organisers Ray Stig and Raelene Squires expressed gratitude to the community for the support over three decades. “Celebrating our 30th year is a significant milestone. “The support from local sponsors and community is commendable,” Raelene told News Of The Area. “It’s truly impressive that the community has come together over the years to raise $433,000 for the Children’s Cancer Institute, contributing to vital research for finding a cure for childhood cancer.” The day is a four-person Ambrose which commences at either 8am or 10:30am. The cost is $25 per person which includes a barbeque lunch cooked by the Nambucca Heads Lions Club. Players are encouraged to participate in the best/fancy dressed competition. There are also prizes for closest to the pin and longest drive. “If you miss breakfast the Island Restaurant will be open from 8am to 11am,” added Raelene. “In addition, we have created a new putting competition on the practice putting green, adding an exciting and interactive element to the event. “It not only provides a fun activity for participants but also contributes to the overall fundraising efforts. “Following lunch there is an auction of all things from sporting goods to full day experiences,” she said. The organisers are still open to donations and sponsors for the day. “This ongoing support will undoubtedly make a significant difference in reaching the fundraising goals and further contributing to the Children’s Cancer Institute,” said Ray.
