CEF volunteers all have one thing in common - to support local youth in their area and help set them up for success in their post-school education or in the workforce.
Our local branch - the CEF of Coleambally & Darlington Point - will be holding a fundraiser in coming weeks to support that very cause.
The Trivia Night is set for Friday, June 27 at the Coleambally Community Club from 7pm.

Variety – the Children’s Charity supports kids who are sick, experiencing disadvantage or living with a disability.
The Bash participants drive 25 year-old cars, or older, through regional parts of Australia, visiting local towns, stopping into schools and organisations to visit kids.
Thanks to all the townsfolk for coming along and enjoying the cars and light lunch.
The Bash started in Bathurst on May 18, and concludes in Newcastle this Saturday.

It is very interesting to note that two scribes of this newspaper were seen at a conference in Canberra in recent days, but still were dedicated to writing about their town for the SRN ... and make deadline.
