Back at the oven after last week’s big sandbagging job … now pizza supremo Piers Shapley is using his Reel Pizza business to help raise funds for Nanango SES<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

February 26, 2015<\/strong><\/p>\n

Last Thursday Piers Shapley swapped his pizza paddle for a sandbag shovel.<\/p>\n

Piers, the owner of Reel Pizzas, became a volunteer with the Nanango SES after he completed a Community Resilience Leadership Workshop last year.<\/p>\n

Since then he has regularly attended the group’s Monday training nights.<\/p>\n

Reel Pizzas can normally be found at Growing The Burnett’s Farmer’s Markets in Kingaroy every Thursday.<\/p>\n

But with Cyclone Marcia bearing down on the region, last week Piers swapped his pizza paddle for a shovel and joined other Nanango SES volunteers preparing sandbags.<\/p>\n

The sandbags were distributed to residents and businesses in the district to help reduce the likelihood of properties being inundated.<\/p>\n

It is a free service, but can save hundreds to thousands of dollars if disaster strikes.<\/p>\n

As things turned out, the South Burnett escaped the worst effects of a cyclone, which many had initially feared might bring a repeat of the 2011 and 2013 floods.<\/p>\n

But now that potential disaster has been averted, Nanango SES needs to turn to fundraising. <\/strong><\/p>\n

And Piers has offered his business as a collection point.<\/p>\n

From today, Reel Pizzas will have a donation tin on their servery table wherever they set up shop, and all money collected will go to the Nanango SES.<\/p>\n

Apart from the Thursday Markets, Reel Pizza’s mobile wood-fired pizza oven can also be found at parties, functions, community events, school fetes and fundraisers all around the South Burnett.<\/p>\n

“I think the Nanango SES do great work and I enjoy being a member,” Piers said.<\/p>\n

“Donations to help them out are always appreciated.”<\/p>\n

The group meets every Monday night at the SES Building in George Street, Nanango from 7:00pm to 9:00pm.<\/p>\n

You can obtain more information about joining or assisting the Nanango SES by phoning Group Leader Robyn on (07) 4163-1933 or 0448-138-220.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
