NightOwl quenches lifesavers’ thirst

Date: 15 April 2010

Brief Description:
There will be plenty of water on hand for thirsty nippers at Emu Park Yeppoon this weekend, thanks to NightOwl Convenience.

Description:
NightOwl will sponsor over 140 bottles of drinking water at the 2010 Queensland Junior Surf Life Saving (SLS) Championships from today until Sunday 18 April.

 

More than 1400 young athletes from as far north as Port Douglas down to Rainbow Bay will converge on Emu Park from in the race for the state titles.

 

NightOwl Marketing Manager Grant Peck said NightOwl is excited to be involved with the state titles, as part of NightOwl’s continuing partnership with Surf Life Saving QLD (SLSQ).

 

“We are delighted to be supporting such a worthwhile event. Lifesaving volunteers provide a fantastic community service, saving thousands of people a year from drowning on our beaches and providing education on beach safety,” Mr Peck said.

 

“As an Australian franchise group, we believe in assisting the local community through supporting worthwhile organisations such as SLSQ. We look forward to other events throughout the year.”

 

As part of this year’s official proceedings, the Pelerman U14 Junior Lifesaver of the Year will also be announced tomorrow.

 

* Australian owned and operated, NightOwl and its franchisees operate 60 stores across Australia, employing more than 500 casual and full-time staff. The first NightOwl Convenience store was opened in 1975 and the business was then franchised in 1986.
