Charity bowls raises $1200

A charity bowls event held at Ettalong Bowling Club on September 27 attracted 60 bowlers and raised $1200.

Charity bowls coordinator Mr Ken Dixon said more than $20,000 had been raised this year by the group for the Central Coast Kids in Need charity.

He said this included a $15,000 donation from the Coast's three Bendigo Community bank branches at Ettalong, East Gosford and Wyong.

Mr Dixon said the charity raised money to assist families who had seriously ill children with prolonged illnesses, with funds used to cover the costs of accommodation, travel and equipment requirements.

The next charity bowls event would be held on Sunday, October 18.
