Fancy yourself a bit of a trivia buff? Polish those skills and gather a few friends to join in the fun of the Bribie Island Environmental Protection Association’s (BIEPA) Gala Fundraising Trivia night at the Pacific Harbour Golf & Country Club on Saturday March 23.
More than just a night with all the big questions, this event will aim to raise funds for BIEPA's projects, helping the group to make Bribie an island sanctuary where all life flourishes.
As one of the event organisers, Leesa would love to see as many people as possible lend their support to the cause.
“If someone wants to help or donate, whether it’s money or a major prize, we’d love to hear from them,” Leesa said. “It’s also a great opportunity for others in the community to come along, attend the trivia night and get to know one another along with other businesses as well.”
Along with trivia, the night will include a two-course meal, raffles and fun activities to help raise funds.
“Enjoy a lovely dinner at the country club and exercise those little grey cells at the same time,” Leesa said. “It’s a bit of fun and friendly competition with the trivia and lots of games and raffles too. The ticket price just covers the venue and food, so there will be plenty of fun activities on the night, to raise some funds. Go on, join in and be generous, we’re depending on you!
“We are looking for more people and corporate businesses to attend, as well as additional sponsors and prizes to raffle/auction prior to the event and on the night itself. For a $200 donation, you can become an event sponsor and we'll sing your praises on the night!”
With just a matter of weeks to go until the trivia night, it’s not too late to be a part of it all, enjoy a great night out and be a part of making a difference.
“As a group we do a lot of projects in the community and this fundraising night will go towards helping with those projects. We’re now learning to ask for donations and doing it more often,” Leesa said. “It’s also an opportunity for exposure because believe it or not, there are still people out in the community that haven’t heard of BIEPA or aren’t sure of what we do.
“Our big picture is about keeping Bribie beautiful. We're a cross of education, helping community, cleaning up the community and trying to keep Bribie gorgeous.”
