Bushfire Meet & Greet held 21st Feb 2009

We held a Meet & Greet get together at our factory on the 21st Feb 2009 with the aim to raise moiney for the Red Cross Bushfire Appeal.

The function was well attended and I believe a great time was had by all.

We raised a total of just under $2300 for the appeal by asking for donations for entry, sausage sizzle, drinks and a couple of raffles.

We thank all that attended and we thank them for there generosity with the door donations.

We apologize to the people that we had to disappoint by not having any sales that day but it was all about raising money and not sales.

I’d also like to thank the staff at Child and the other people that contributed there time and goods to help make this day a success.

Playfields Update 8th Feb 2009

we have fitted one new MB playfield so far

Andrew found NO problems with the T nuts

some holes for the post weren't as deep as needed and had to be drilled a small bit

but rather this than be too long and have to re fill

overall a good and easy playfield to install
