Cinco de Mayo Charity Extravaganza


A New Computer Lab Would be Fab!
- Press Release - Holy Cross Anglican School announces the 2nd Annual Cinco de Mayo ‘Faces of the Future’ Charity Extravaganza, a fundraising benefit for the Holy Cross Anglican School. Wet Willy’s Bar and Grill located on the Hustler Tours pier is hosting this wonderful event on Saturday, May 3 from 11a.m. - 9p.m.

A computer lab is urgently needed by the Holy Cross Anglican School to ensure that national curriculum standards are met and to enable children to participate in important extracurricular activities, which provide them with opportunities to develop additional skills using modern technology. All proceeds from this year’s fundraiser will help Holy Cross provide this much needed computer lab.

Due to the huge success of last year/s Cinco de Mayo, Friends of Holy Cross have decided to make the event double the fun. From 11pm – 3 pm will be a Beach Party. Come and join the fun with bouncy tents, delicious food, piñatas, exciting games and prizes for all the family.
Anyone looking for a good bargain is bound to find a treasure at a huge yard sale. Amazing items will be raffled throughout the Beach Party event. All of this has been organized by the wonderful Holy Cross teachers and will happen right on the beach in front of Wet Willy’s dock.
From 3p.m. onwards, the community is invited to come inside Wet Willy’s Bar and Grill for the charity event. Supporters can participate in 50/50 draws and Live Auction. Excellent entertainment from local bands will keep everyone tapping their toes all evening.

Some of the items available at the auctions include: Romantic dinners at Blue Lotus, Casa Picasso, Christo’s and Portifino, massage and beauty treatments from Brahma Blue, Carole Goudreau Esthetic and Sol Spa and use of a boat that takes eight people, including a Captain for a whole day’s personalised trip.

Bring your family and friends to this once a year Cinco de Mayo ‘Faces of the Future’ Charity Extravaganza. Who would think that you could have so much fun in one place and walk away knowing that you’ve done something wonderful for your community.
To volunteer, donate items for the auction, raffle or yard sale please contact the School office on 226 – 3456. If you are in a band or a musician and are able to volunteer during the day, please do get in touch. But if you believe in children and education, please be there.
