The highly anticipated event will once again be held in Hervey House on May 9 to raise funds for Cancer Council Queensland.

It is the FCFG's biggest fundraiser of the year and of course, the most fun!

A Hervey Bay RSL Community Grant of $2500 will cover the cost of food and room hire for the day.

The group fundraise under the umbrella of Cancer Council Queensland with all money raised going directly to providing assistance towards the services and support that CCQ offers, as well as an investment into vital research and education programs to increase the awareness of cancer and its wide-reaching effects.

Tickets are only $25 and are available from RSL reception Registrations open from 7am. Racing starts at 9am. Visit www.herveybaytriclub.org.au/charitytriathlon to find out more.
