The Rotary Club of Eaglehawk has embarked on an innovative and adventurous project to raise funds for the R.O.S.E program and other youth projects. On Saturday June 11 nine international wrestlers, many of whom have worked on WWE, will stage an event at the Bendigo Exhibition Centre before an estimated 2000 people. The seven bouts will feature U-Gene, Paul London, Jimmy Yang, Ironman Rob Conway and “Serena” the Straight Edge Diva.
It will also include some outstanding young Australian wrestlers with international aspirations. Although they will have only one show in Australia the wrestlers will take part in a range of public and promotional activities, especially with schools and young people in Bendigo.
Immediate Past President and New Generations Director, John Jones, stated that, “While Eaglehawk Rotary is really good at the hands-on projects, especially with local activities, barbecues and work parties to Timor Leste and so on, fundraising has always presented a challenge. This project has the potential to generate the funds we need to support our local and international projects. It is a really unique opportunity for Bendigo as, for these internationally acclaimed wrestlers, this is their first and only opportunity to entertain outside capital cities. We look forward to support from our local and regional communities.”
Tickets for the event are now available from Bendigo Cinemas. Further details are available wrestlingforrotary.eaglehawkrotary.org
