| OED BUSH BALL |
| June 28, 2010 at 10:50 am |
| Hi All Outdoor Eddies. I'm writing to inform you of an event we are running at our Education Centre on Saturday 18th Sept 2010. The inaugural OED Bush Ball, a community building project, not a profit generating event, any profit remaining form the event will be donated to Young Care supporting young people in full time, high care needs. This is a night of Fun, a sit down dinner and chance to dress up and feel great about our industry. The Price is $50 per person, which will include the dinner, drinks, accommodation and a simple breakfast on Sunday morning. There will only be space for 100 people so first in first served. Come and support the industry we all enjoy and love. We'll have some cool music during the night and it wouldn't be outdoor ed if there wasn't a game or two during the night. See the attached flyer. I look forward to sharing a nice glass of wine or beer with you on the night. I'd like to thank you in advance for your support and attendance to this event.
