Hi All,

Sorry for any cross posting, but it's coming up soon and no one should miss it! Put it in the diary now!

Please also find attached a poster for advertising around your offices.

After several years of wanting to get it down here, Bingay is coming to Wollongong!

As one of the events for the University's Diversity week, one of Sydney's best nights of entertainment is coming to the Gong to camp it up, share some glam with the South Coast and raise some money to support GLBT services around the state. There are also great prizes to be won!

Date:                 23 March 2009
Start Time:       7:30 pm
Location:         UNIBAR - University of Wollongong
Cost:                 Students: $10
                          Non Students: $15

Tickets are available from the Unishop (02) 4221 8065 or www.bigtix.com.au

N.B. Due to it being in a bar, this will be an 18+ event.

For those of you who don't know what Bingay is, picture a very, very camped up version of Bingo, hosted by the fabulous multi DIVA award winning drag queen, Mitzi Macintosh. Mitzi's 'barrel girl', is the all singing out there dyke Naomi who recently received her second DIVA award.

Bingay is Mitzi's take on bingo, but it has a very big twist! Expect weird rules, singalongs, penalties and hilarious stories with prizes that range from the silly and camp to great theatre tickets or restaurant vouchers. It is a night for friends to get together and have fun on a 'school night', that also ends by around 11pm so you can have a great night out without feeling like you can not face work the next day!

This should be a great night out, the funds raised go to supporting our community and if it goes really well, we can hopefully get them down here every year!

Bring along a group of friends, have some drinks, a laugh and maybe even take home some great prizes for your trouble :-)

I hope to see you all there :-)

Cheers!
