AN adults-only trivia night is returning as part of an annual fundraising initiative for Rokewood Kindergarten.<\/p>\n
The event will take place on Friday, 5 August at the Rokewood Memorial Hall, and coordinator Rachelle Carter said it will offer time away from the kids, for the kids.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s giving the parents and the community a night out while feeding back into things in support of a worthy cause,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cLast year, we were able to raise funds with a monster raffle but this is something that they can actually have some fun with.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere\u2019ll be an esky full of alcohol to win, silent auctions, raffle prizes and a prize for best dressed.\u201d<\/p>\n
The event is Rokewood Kindergarten\u2019s largest annual fundraiser, with previous iterations allowing for a veranda enclosure and regular toy and equipment maintenance.<\/p>\n
Trivia with Wheels\u2019 Greg Wheelahan will host the night, and Rokewood Kindergarten supervisor and teacher Megan Young said the funds will go towards two key projects.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have quite a large veranda and a ramp that goes to the playground area. The covering over the ramp stops short before the playground and rain comes in easily,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cSo, we\u2019ll definitely be getting that roof extended, and we\u2019ll also be looking into some soundproofing for our room because it does get loud and echoey.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019ve raised up to $3000 or $4000 on our trivia nights and it\u2019s great because instead of looking towards the same families every time it does appeal to the wider community.\u201d<\/p>\n
Entry is $15 and contact Ms Carter on 0417 725 394 to make a booking.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
