Frasercoast Radio and Bear Care Hospice

On this Easter Saturday me and Annie were proud to have been part of fund raising by getting involved in our local community radio Frasercoast FM 107.5 ( I am currently training as an announcer). Raising money in order that the radio station can survive was provided by doing a sausage sizzle outside Dan Murphys bottle shop ( Off licence to my Pommie Pals) and quite a few helpers turned up.I was given place of honour by actually cooking the food ! Volunteers were in great form and it was nice to meet some of  the radio announcers as well as those that work quietly in the background ( non announcers) Further down the aptly named Boat Harbour Drive a radio outside broadcast was being held at Eli Waters Caltex Petrol Station and I had my face painted via the lovely young Georgia (working with Fantasy See face painters also donating their time Care Bear)and had volunteered her time so that the wonderful childrens charity Bear Care Hospice could make some much needed cash donated by the general public.The petrol station staff were also involved by wearing rabbit ears and cleaning vehicle windows for a gold coin donation ($1) Des,Ann and Christine were the annouuncers with Pat my training officer setting up equipment in our newly acquired mobile van and we were happy to assist with equipment.Being a hot sunny day volunteers bravely stood by  their respective posts and hopefully made lots of money.Well done to you all.
