The South Burnett Show Society has put out a call to community groups who need to raise funds to help them out by manning the gates at this year’s Kingaroy Show on May 4-5<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

April 25, 2019<\/strong><\/p>\n

The South Burnett Show Society (SBSS) has an unusual money-making opportunity for community groups … but they’ll need to be quick to take advantage of it.<\/p>\n

The annual Kingaroy Show will be held on May 4-5, and the Society needs 15 people to man four gates at Kingaroy Showgrounds during Show weekend.<\/p>\n

SBSS committee spokesman Tim De Caluwe said the gates are normally manned by local service clubs to raise funds for their own community projects.<\/p>\n

But this year – partly through being over-committed, and partly due to an ageing membership – many of the Show’s normal ticket-sellers are unavailable.<\/p>\n

“We sympathise with the problems our helpers are facing this year, but every cloud has a silver lining,” Tim said.<\/p>\n

“And the silver lining is that this throws open the opportunity for other South Burnett community groups who need to do some fund-raising to step in.<\/p>\n

“It could be they need the money for a project, like new nets for their goal-posts. Or it could be that they want to raise money for a good cause, like Relay for Life.<\/p>\n

“We don’t mind. If they need to raise money for the community and are looking for an easy way to do it, I’d like them to give me a call.”<\/p>\n

Tim said the Show Society was very flexible, and was happy to let smaller groups get together and combine their efforts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“For example, a school P&C might arrange to handle one of our gates on Saturday, and a sporting club who play fixtures on Saturday might team with them to look after the same gate on Sunday.”<\/p>\n

Tim said the Show Society would also be happy for any South Burnett group to apply, and they didn’t necessarily need to be based in Kingaroy.<\/p>\n

“It doesn’t matter if a group comes from Blackbutt, Proston, Murgon or any town in between – we’re not parochial about it.”<\/p>\n

The Show Society need their gates manned from 6:00am to 8:00pm on both Saturday, May 4 and Sunday May 5. <\/strong><\/p>\n

“We recommend a minimum of two to three people on each gate throughout the day, and possibly more during busier times,” Tim said.<\/p>\n

“The Show Society provides a donation to the community groups who help us out after the show in appreciation of their efforts.”<\/p>\n

Community groups who’d like to express interest in the offer should phone Tim on 0411-386-743 or send him an email<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n
