Trivia night raises $4300 for wildlife rescue service
A trivia night for wildlife rescue service, Wires, held in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Brisbane Water attracting 120 guests, has raised $4383.80.
Rotary club co-president Mr Mitchell Gordon joined Mr Troy Dove for their sixth charity trivia night at Ettalong Diggers on September 21.
''The Pearl Beach Room at Ettalong Diggers was busting at the seams," Mr Gordon said.
''We are so grateful to the community for coming out and showing their support for Wires Central Coast.
"The large crowd enjoyed raffles, giveaways and four rounds of original trivia questions.
"Divided into 12 teams of 10 people, attendees were challenged to 40 questions.
"Questions focused on the history of rock and roll.
"Prizes were awarded to the winning team at the end of each round.
"Live auctions, speeches and games rounded out the evening."
Mr Gordon said Wires Central Coast rescued and cared for sick, injured and orphaned wildlife from Brooklyn in the south, to Summerland Point in the north, and to Bucketty to the west.
"They also provide ongoing community information and education, and they engage in local activities to help protect and preserve wildlife and wildlife habitat."
