The event is expected to attract approximately 250 people and will be held at the West Ashfield Leagues Club on Monday, 16 November.
A number of schools have already submitted nominations, with 10 schools currently participating.
Members were asked to consider:
- Raffle prizes and potential sponsors.
- Businesses that may be interested in advertising or supporting the event.
- A suitable charity to receive funds raised on the night.
There was discussion about selecting a charity with a connection to children and families, preferably a local organisation. Suggestions included organisations supporting children's health, special-needs education, music programs and families affected by domestic violence. The possibility of linking the fundraising theme with guest speaker Jack Hughes' involvement with local schools and music was also raised.
