She was ecstatic with the roll up and how the night went, âWe were lucky enough to raise $1408.25 which is an awesome effort and greatly appreciated. I was so happy to be able to hand over the donation to Lou. I know our efforts will help many farmers especially through this droughtâ, said Becky.
âI would like to thank our sponsors, McPhersons Parts and Services, Ron Dunfords Chemist and the Peak Hill Newsagency who donated prizes for the trivia night and also especially thank all the SRC kids who helped run the night.â
âI would also like to thank my brother Artie Wright, who provided entertainment by singing some fabulous songs and providing us with awesome dance moves, and everyone who helped to make the event run smoothlyâ said Becky.
