The local Bribie Island community came together on Sunday October 26 at the Bribie RSL for a fun afternoon to raise much needed funds for B.I.K.E.S. (Bribie Island Kids Educational Support). 

BIKES is a local, community funded charity with the objective of ensuring that no child’s education is disadvantaged through adverse financial circumstances. 

One hundred percent of raised funds are used to assist local families to get the textbooks, uniforms and essential supplies needed for their children’s education. This support can also extend outside of the classroom to the sporting field, swimming lessons, school camps and excursions. 

The highlight of the afternoon was the Great Duck Race, where more than 300 plastic ducks were placed in a pool and lucky numbers were pulled out to win great prizes.   

Attendees were also entertained by guest speakers, including Julie Elliot and the chairman of BIKES, Ken Piva. 

The afternoon was a great success – full of fun, community spirit and generosity. Together, we raised more than $8500 for the BIKES charity. 

If you would like to help support this wonderful local charity through sponsorship or donations, please contact Kerrianne on 0417 784 778.
