While we were having a break

over $4,000 funds raised plus dividend from the Carousel

 

 

 

After recovering from the Christmas breakup on Tuesday 16 December, we fronted to Bunnings for a Saturday BBQ.

 

 

 

"Wow, what a perfect day – we didn’t have to set up or take down the BBQ (this is now a Bunnings role), all we had to do is cook, serve, and clean up at the end !!
 
I say 'all we had to…', but, we were busy most of the day, and had a fantastic result.
 
Gross sales $3,431, net profit $2.657….."

 

 

 

 

Where else would you want to be?

 

Plan was to work from 11am through to 10pm (1100-2200).

 

The Saturday afternoon sessions were helped somewhat by Latter Day Saints volunteers, although Ros had to go down and train/put them through the fast pace of Carousel life.

And a mixup that evening when the Operator after the greasing (we didn't know about that either) didn't turn up. Unfortunately Scott and Brian J had a bit of a wait.

 

Sunday looked to be busy, and went according to plan. Sort of, until 9pm when the Operator closed up shop (that's what his roster said). Frank turned up and questioned why the shut down. By then it was too late, but Ros and Andrew got an early "minute".

 

So about 40 hours of volunteering for the weekend!

 

 

Starting the New Year with our normal monthly Monday BBQ @ Bunnings Woodville.
