20.01.2022 Cancer will not shut down for COVID so neither can we. After our first ZOOM committee meeting we have decided that the Sleeping Giant Raffle will go ahead, we will ask team captains to register their team members online @ $15 per head ( donation- no shirt this year) and we will encourage teams to do their own fundraising in the lead up to 10 October. And then come out in force on that day in your local park, streets or walking tracks to safely raise money for our cause. More details to follow but start organising your team- registrations will open 1 September.
