THERE was a great turnON THE 17th of December the first annual Brian “POM” Howard Memorial Fundraiser Day was held at the Macksville Country Club.
Brian was originally from Newcastle however he moved up to the Nambucca valley to join some of his family and was quick to make many friends. He played the sport he loved here and as a tribute
each year a fun day will be held to celebrate the life of Brian. And to raise money for a local charity. This year we had a roll up as Brian loved his bowls, however next year we plan on going bigger.
This year Charity that we raised money for was the Nambucca Valley Cancer Support Group and im pleased to say we raised just over $1500. Each year we will raise money for a different local charity.
A massive thank you to the club and their staff for the generosity and support. To the local businesses, the clubs men and woman bowlers, everyone who had a helping hand in getting the day organised and everyone who joined in and opened there wallets so everyone could enjoy the day and raise some money.
Everyone’s help and support was greatly appreciated
