Charity bowlers raise $1650
Charity bowlers have raised $1650 at Ettalong Bowling Club at their December event.
The total included a $500 donation and $50 from the auction of an antique watch.
The money raised went to Central Coast Kids in Need to assist families who have children with serious illnesses.
"Most of these children are cancer patients, others with organ transplants and premature babies with life threatening illnesses," said organiser Mr Ken Dixon.
"The money is used to defray the costs of accommodation at Ronald Mcdonald House and Parent Hostel Rooms while the kids are receiving their treatment.
"The funds are also used to cover travel costs, equipment requirements and pharmacy accounts for these Kids in Need."
The next charity day is Sunday, February 19, and every third Sunday of the month from then.
