Caring for the Hinterland community for over 20 yrs
48 years fundraising to fight cancer By Helen Page It really is 48 years! Did you know that the Beerwah Charity Sports and Spring Carnival has been raising funds for the Cancer Council Queensland (formerly Queensland Cancer Fund) since 1971? With support from the Glasshouse Country community, the committee has kept this event going for all those years to help fund cancer research and patient support. All the old favourites are on the program again this year including horse sports, with events for all ages and a special miniature horse ring, show and shine for vehicles, athletics and novelties, Queensland’s strongest man and woman championship, photography competition, live music, talent quest Glasshouse Country’s Got Talent, tai chi demonstration, stalls selling produce, plants and home cooking, plus a variety of market stalls and displays. A favourite event is the Glasshouse Country dog jump, with $100 prize money on offer this year, so get your dogs in training. The kids’ entertainment tent is the meeting place for children’s activities where you will find the magician, face painter, balloon artist and hoola hoops. The very popular animal nursery is nearby. Thanks to Belinda and Sunshine Coast Party Ponies for providing the baby animals each year. The pet parade was back on the program last year by popular request but where were the pets?

Let’s see more entries this year – there will be prizes for best presented and fancy dress. Bring your pet to the ring near the Bulldogs clubhouse for judging after the kids’ athletics. If you would you like to help with the Charity Sports volunteers are always welcome, especially on Friday setting up and on the day. Donations of plants, produce and cooking for the stalls are also greatly appreciated. Almost every family has some personal experience of cancer so why not come along this Saturday, August 24, join in the fun and help with the fight against cancer.
