May 10, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

Burrandowan Picnic Race Club presented a cheque for $6890 to the LifeFlight Foundation last month … and it’s keen to raise even more dollars for the life-saving charity this weekend.<\/p>\n

The cheque was from the proceeds of the 2017 race day, and the club has decided to again devote its fundraising on race day to LifeFlight.<\/p>\n

“RACQ LifeFlight do an amazing job for our community, and none of us know when we might need their help,” race club president Brendan McCormack said.<\/p>\n

“Each of their call outs cost about $12,500 so this is just a small contribution toward the work they do, and we are very proud to support this work.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe love supporting local charities and do this by having Lions, Rotary, the local P&Cs and other charities involved on race day.”<\/p>\n

Last year was a record year for LifeFlight, <\/em>which performed 5344 missions.<\/p>\n

The annual Burrandowan picnic races attract punters, fashionistas and families from all over south-east Queensland.<\/p>\n

It’s on again this Saturday (May 12)\u00a0 with the day kicking off at 9:00am with clay target and Race 1 at 1:30pm.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
