RecLink Cricket
Rotarians will recall that we have for the last few years supplied a BBQ and drinks for the Reclink Bendigo Victory Football club. Recklink have also put together a cricket competition and have a Bendigo team. Their season is well under way and they have 2 home games and have asked us if we could again supply a BBQ.
Their next and final game is the 19th February. I am seeking the help of 3 or 4 Rotarians who can help with the BBQ for the players and supporters on each of these days.
It is at Cal Gully Oval and we aim to feed them about 1:15 to 1:30, so if we could be set up ready to cook by about 12.45 pm
In line with Reclink’s request we will supply vegi burgers, coleslaw, sausages and water for the drink
As many Rotarian will attest this is a fun activity in supporting those that are in need, It is also a great fellowship activity.
We need about 2 or 3 Rotarians, but the more the merrier. Please let me know if you can help out on the day.
