Aussie Hotel bartender Tash Furnell has been backing the cause for three years and the donations start tonight with an auction at 7.30pm at the Aussie. Goods to outbid your neighbour for include solar panels and tools. On Saturday at Victoria Park at 9am, teams of four, ages 16 and up can compete in the UGLY Games, a fun-fitness competition. Register on the day. On Sunday, the Aussie Hotel is hosting a garage sale and barbecue with live music from local favourite Brock Mathers. All proceeds will be donated to the foundation. For more information phone the Aussie on 6722 1611.
