Gday members me again - Some of you maybe aware there is a bridge on the southside being built and almost at its completion. John Holland has chosen the MS Society as its Charity. There is an opening Cock tail dinner to raise $50,000 for people living with Multiple Sclerosis read details below on the 12th of December.

I am putting the feelers out for any small or large buisnesses Fishing , boating, or even other buisnesses such as Lures & Tackle to donate a package for this Auction night, the buisness will be well aknowledged amoungst the exclusive 400 guests and i believe recieves advertising. Your interests need to include your buisness name /logo in JPeg by the 1st of Dec.
To give and idea perhaps a fishing package or Deep Sea charter?
Please read further :

The Green Bridge is Australia's first pedestrian, cycle & bus bridge connecting Dutton Park to UQ. The MS Society of Queensland has been the community charity of choice throughout this $55.5 million Brisbane City Council/John Holland project, and on Tuesday 12 December, there is an exclusive formal event on the bridge to celebrate the end of construction, before officially opening to the public on Sunday 17 December.

As the beneficiary of this event, the Society is hosting the charity auction, raffle & lucky door prize for the evening, and the event hopes to raise $50,000 for people living with Multiple Sclerosis. The Lord Mayor will be in attendance, Janet Holmes a Court, and leading local business people from corporate and engineering organisations. Due to the nature of guests attending the event (construction, engineers, etc), we are seeking items of interest such as:

Fishing package (rod, tackle box, etc) to the value of $500
Deep sea fishing experience for 6 people
Whale watching experience for 6 people

Ian Skippen has kindly donated his services to MC the evening, and will actively promote all organisations who have generously supported the event.

Thank you for your assistance with this Michael, and I look forward to hearing from you. We'd need organisation logos and any design images in full colour jpeg by Friday 1 December, to design posters for display at each auction item and throughout the event on the cocktail tables. We'd also need donated items/gift vouchers in our office by that date too.
Regards Sandman
