WHERE IS THE MONEY SPENT 

I wanted to explain to you all, the five different areas, we have identified , that the funds raised on the night will be distributed.  This gives you an idea of the different projects of the club that need continued support.  The auction is extremely important for the viability of these.

1.    Football - 14’s, 15’s, 16’s, Colts Programmes providing the best development environment possible so the boys can reach their potential.
2.    Membership – Aid in the funding of a new database for past players and members, this is one of the most important projects we have for the future of the club.
3.    Facilities – With 50 year old building we are continually spending money on our club rooms.  We spent $20K on building guttering and sewerage in 2013/2014 due to their dilapidation. 
4.    Facilities – Griff John Room, looking at a renovation of the entire function room for the comfort of our members.
5.    Social Responsibilities – Helping us with the establishment of an indigenous foundation that we have been working on for a while now.
