Trivia Night Update and more...

I have been slack haven't I?  It's been way too long since I provided an update.

This update should have come a long time ago, but here it is nonetheless.  The trivia night was a great success.  We raised $1800 on the night with the trivia and silent auction items, plus another $1800 with the raffle that was drawn that night.  A huge thank-you goes out to all those people that came along and made it a success.  Another huge thank-you to those that helped with donations, setting up, selling raffle tickets, writing questions, etc.  The raffle winners on the night were as follows:

1st Prize - Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 - Chris O
2nd Prize - Olympus TG-320 14MP Digital Camera - Joseph D
3rd Prize - $100.00 JB HiFi Voucher - Barry M

The raffle took the total money raised to $7650 (including the online donations).  This is not far off the $8000.00 minimum I need to raise for the Laos Water Cycle Project.  So what's next??

I'm looking at potentially running one or two other events.  However, I'm open to suggestions as to what you think would be fun to do.  Please leave your feedback in the comments section.  Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Training is progressing well too and I'm hoping to do another ride this weekend before I head off to Europe for a couple of weeks.
