Sportsman's Charity Event - Friday, 13th November
|
It is that time of year again - the STA Sportsman's Charity Event is fast approaching. The 2009 Event has had a slight revamp and the changes include a later start - now kicking off at 3.30pm at Parramatta Leagues Club.
We are very pleased to announce the guest speaker for the event is Brett Kimmorley from the Bulldogs Rugby League Team, who no doubt will have many great stories to tell on his successful career in League.
The charity for this year's event is "Movember". The challenge is set - Who in the Turf Industry can grow the best 'Mo'? There will be prizes for the best Moustache as well as great raffle and game prizes and a selection of silent auction items. The aim for the event is to allow everyone plenty of socialising time and we have reduced the number of live auction items to a few select very special items.
It's a great event for an end of year function for staff and clients. We hope you are able to attend and we look forward to seeing you.
All the details are available on the website. Click below for more info.
