Oscar the Brave

24 Aug 2014 by Shane Ryan


Hi All

Some of you may be aware that Marianne Kleine – partner of our President Bob McLachlan contacted A Current Affair in the hope they could offer some assistance to one of our families – Oscar, his parents Vicki and Andrew and sister Madison, who are going through a tough time. Most of you will be familiar with Oscar’s story and his condition – Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and the Oscar the Brave organization – www.oscarthebrave.org.au A Current Affair came on board and last week together with tradies from our club, donations from their suppliers, club sponsors, member of our club and many others performed a backyard renovation as a surprise for this beautiful family, when they came home from their mini break away. Absolutely everything was donated!!

The show will air on Tuesday night – 26th August on channel 9 at 7pm. Team Manager / Coaches could I ask that you put something on Team App to alert all member and request they watch this story. I encourage everyone to watch this show, support this family and continue to be part of this incredible club and community.

Oscar and Andrew come to most under 13 games, Auskick and were at the under 17A Grand Final cheering on Upper Gully.
