The benefit - held upstairs at the Forbes Golf and Sportsman’s Hotel - is to support 17-year-old Danielle who was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia earlier this year.
Organiser ‘Jack’ Clarke said local people and businesses have already shown wonderful support to the cause.
“I just think the Forbes community are unbelievable,” he said. “We’ve had so many people buying raffle tickets, many who don’t even know the people they’re buying it for.”
The night will start at 6.30pm and guests will be entertained by karaoke, singing by Phil and Judy Prior and a disco.
The major raffle will offer $800 in IGA vouchers ($500 first, $200 second and $100 third prize).
There will be an auction of donated items, meat raffles, 100 clubs and more.
Upstairs, a light meal, catered by the golf club, will be available at a small cost.
Everybody is encouraged to attend with guests just asked to make a gold coin donation at the door.
