BOWLS
Members of the Ettalong Bowling Club have helped raise an additional $850 in support of families with seriously ill children as part of their monthly commitment to local charity, Central Coast Kids in Need.
Around 40 bowlers attended the March 13 event at the Springwood St club.
Director of Ettalong Bowling Club, Ken Dixon, said a total of $3,500 has been raised so far this year.
“The proceeds were supplemented by Roger Townend’s $50 for the Ming Dynasty Vase auctioned by John Orme,” Dixon said.
“There were plenty of raffle prizes on display and plenty of big winners … another wonderful day.
“The Rebels were there in support as usual as were our Social Club supporters who have been attending for many years.”
Central Coast Kids in Need raises money to assist families who have seriously ill children with prolonged illness, helping cover the costs of travel, accommodation, equipment and pharmacy accounts.
The next charity day will be held on Sunday, April 24.
