This just arrived in my inbox so thought I would pass it on. If you have
ever been to the Surfstitch store on the hill up to Newport you would have
probably met Donny. Great guy - always friendly and a regular Mona Vale
surfer. He tragically lost his arm in a horrific accident outside the
Surfstitch store when a drunken driver cut across several lanes of traffic
and hit him (at 9.00 am in the morning Sunday week ago). You may have seen
the report in the Manly Daily.
Brendon 'Donny' Robson, well known local Mona Vale surfer and member of
Mona Vale Boardriders, working in the local surf industry was struck by a
car on Sunday 15th of August resulting in the loss of his left arm.
A fundraiser for Donny is being held at the Mona Vale Hotel on Thursday 2nd
of September 6:30 - 9:30pm.
Entry is $20 dollars and you will be in the draw for a brand new Board as a
lucky door prize.
Guest presenters will draw Raffle and auction prizes up for grabs on the
night.
So please join us and the local community in helping Donny get back in the
Line up.
If you can't make the night you can make a pledge at any Westpac Branch
account name "Dig Deep for Donny"
You can also donate direct to the same account
