RSL Fund-raiser Brings Total to Over $31,000!

It was standing room only on Friday night at the RSL Memorial Club's fund-raiser in Cooktown, where the band CN3D kept everyone dancing, and a massive $15,000 was raised for the Queensland Disaster Appeal.

Over 40 local businesses donated a fantastic range of prizes including free gardening, outboard motor service, tours, meals, food, wine, accommodation, and a pizza a week for 40 weeks! The door prize, a day's fishing and snorkelling on Mr. Bill, was won by Graham Duncan.

Cooktown's donations to the Queensland Disaster Relief Appeal now total over $31,000 - an awesome amount for a small town. And there's still more to come!

Our thanks to everyone who has given so generously, and congratulations to Suzi, John and all the team who worked tirelessly to make the event such a roaring success.
