Picnic amongst the cars

Maxine and Colin Kiev have been reasonably successful business people and staunch community supporters.

Having established a manufacturing business in a small country town in Gippsland, Victoria they always believed in supporting their local community and were heavily involved in many community activites for more than 30 years.

When it came time for the pair to retire, Colin followed his passion for historic motor vehicles and added to his already eclectic collection, a few other vehicles. Knowing their daughter had settled with her husband in Noosa, the obvious decision was made to move closer to the youngest grandchildren.

They downsized the motor museum they had in Victoria but continue to offer it to car enthusiasts and other community groups for viewing at their Lake MacDonald property.

Always ready to support their local community, when approached by members of the Tewantin Noosa Branch of Red Cross to hold a charity fundraiser in the form of a Picnic Amongst the Cars, showing their historic vehicles and a display of other vehicles, they enthusiastically agreed.

The community is invited to join Red Cross for a picnic amongst a collection of antique and classic cars, while enjoying the sounds of Hot Peppers Jazz Band and with raffles and a silent auction, on Sunday 28 May at Lake Macdonald.

Tickets are available online at events.humanitix.com/picnic-amongst-the-cars

All proceeds raised will go to the Queensland services of Red Cross that support our communities and those persons experiencing difficult life issues.
