Ros and Andrew attended a briefing at Bunnings Woodville last Thursday.
Nicole started a bit early, however was available to answer questions and happy to repeat information as required.
There were about 10-15 in attendance, fundraising for:
- scout/girl guides
- dragon boats
- community groups/assistance
- School and sporting Clubs etc
Key points
- Nicole expects her team to construct/erect (bump in) the tents/BBQ, and also do the tear down (bump out) - refer to photo below of sample setup
- she is happy for Clubs who want to help, to assist with bump in/out
- standard plan is for two (2) tents, Clubs can organise however they want, but must keep
- access clear to fire blanket and extinguisher
- access clear from BBQ to outside
- no counting of money inside the tents
- she has provided an extra full size table and a bin!
- Hot Weather operation is at the discretion of each Club, Bunnings may intervene
- Nicole will supply battery operated fans as appropriate
- Bunnings will decide on operation during inclement weather (wind, rain etc), as this has a potentially greater risk to general public/equipment
- Nicole also reiterated potential support to Club's other activities (like she did for our Christmas event)
- at the moment, Woodville run BBQ's on 4 days, Fri/Sat/Sun/Mon
Oh, and there was a lucky door prize - which RCWL won!
Nicole is very generous, she also had a number of gift vouchers as minor prizes.
