Brighton facility fundraiser

A charity auction to raise money for the Brighton Surf Life Saving Club and Community Facility rebuild will be held next month.

Club rebuild committee senior member Scott Weatherall said the auction would be held in the Studio 9 Lounge at Forsyth Barr Stadium on November 13.

The auction was free to attend and refreshments and nibbles would be provided for bidders, he said.

The items to be auctioned from 5.30pm would include a framed team bag signed by the All Black team that toured the United Kingdom in 1993.

The bag was donated by Laurie Mains.

Other auction items included art, a fishing trip and a cricket bat signed and donated by Brendon McCullum.

The auction would include a presentation on the history of the Brighton Surf Life Saving Club rebuild.

Building the new clubrooms has finished and the club is carrying out some final fundraising for the fit-out.

The final inspection to check building compliance would be held tomorrow, Mr Weatherall said.

''That's super exciting.''
