The sun may not have shone, but at least we had some horse races this year, when the 140 strong crowd came to the Gold Coast Turf Club on March 5th to help Dream Workers raise some much needed funds for Youngcare.
MC, Marc Renai, once again outdid himself, as he steered the crowd through the Heads and Tails game, a human horse race around the tables and the most unusual fashion parade that anyone has ever witnessed.
The men slid onto their backs in the rain, and were forced to take their shirts off in order to win the competition. The ladies needed to remove their heels to try to win the fashion stakes in the shoes. They also resorted to pulling in a body builder and a belly dancer just to try to win the fascinator competition...but you had to be there!
A lot of laughs were had by all and over $10,000 was raised for Youngcare to help with the construction of their new facility on the Gold Coast for young people in care.
