FAMILY fun is the order of the evening for a big fundraiser organised by Nambucca Heads RSL Club for Saturday 8 July at 6pm, to support the community’s defibrillator campaign.

Inspired by the Valla Beach community’s achievements in raising money to place a number of defibrillators around their local area, the crew at Nambucca Heads RSL sought to roll out the idea across other remote areas of the Nambucca Valley, placing defibrillators at key sites.

This is the club’s third fundraiser toward the defibrillators, and it wants community involvement.

Kellie Standing from Nambucca Heads RSL is curating a program of entertainment for the fundraiser.

The fun and games will start at 6pm with DJ Bisho, from ‘hit that hit musical bingo’.

“DJ Bisho plays a popular music track, you sing and dance if you choose, he says the name of the tune and if you’ve got it you mark it off; it really is a good laugh and gets everyone involved,” Kellie told News of the Area.

“There will be paper plane challenges, a kids disco with a little hokey pokey, the nutbush and some of your favourite hits.

“The night of fun and games will also include some old-school Bingo, so be sure to bring your glasses and be the first to call ‘bingo’.

“The theme of the night is Christmas in July, so pull out your table decorations and favourite outfits,” she said.

There will be prizes for the best-dressed humans and best-dressed tables.

Among the games and prizes will be raffles.

“We’ve already had some lovely local businesses donating gift vouchers and there’s lots of community involvement in gathering the prizes.”

Kellie urged any local businesses wishing to support the family fun event with prizes or donations to give her a call at Nambucca Heads RSL Club on 02 6568 6288.

Fundraising starts with tickets, $10 per adult and $5 per child.

Tickets are available at the club reception and the organisers recommend those interested to book a table.

“Bring the family, bring the grandparents and come have some school holiday fun with all proceeds being donated to defibrillator fundraising,” said Kellie.
