The ball is on June 2.

Staff at Port Macquarie Orthodontics are organising the event and will be contributing to the fundraising effort by competing in the City2Surf. 

Organiser Luke Nancarrow said tickets were still available for the big night.

“The ball is on Saturday June 2, from 6.30pm at the Wauchope Bonny Hills Surf Life Saving Club,” he said.

“The night features live music, the silent auction, raffles and plenty of prizes.

“Tickets are $75 per person. We are looking to build up the tickets sales to close to 150.

“This is for a great cause.”

Mr Nancarrow said 14 staff members would be participating in the 14 kilometre City2Surf from Hyde Park to Bondi Beach, as part of the fundraising effort.

“Last year we had nine participants in the City2Surf, so it’s really great to have 14 staff members getting involved in the fundraiser,” he said.

“We have various training regimes underway, some of us are now doing Park Run, others are climbing North Brother, but all of us are not taking it too seriously.

“While the City2Surf is part of what we are doing, our real focus is on the Roll Out The Red Carpet black tie ball in June.

“We have already raised around $3000 toward our goal of $14,000, so we are really ahead of schedule at this point in time.

“However, we would really appreciate getting some more business donations for the black tie ball’s silent auction.”

City2Surf is on Sunday August 12, 2018.
