2005

The Czech Australian New Zealand Association held its inaugural Annual Charity Ball on Saturday 26th November at the Corinthia Towers Hotel in Prague.

A large group of some 320 guests from 17 nations gathered for a night filled with fun and entertainment featuring special guest performers Gavin Ware - Aboriginal Performing Artist, Manaia Maori Performing Arts Group and Jazz Efterrätt.

The event raised a total of 330,000kc for children's charities in the Czech Republic and included the auction of a HSBC Waratahs Rugby Ball signed by the entire team which achieved a sale price of 22,000Kč. The lucky bidder being Michael Vincenec of Interdean, s.r.o.
With a host of first rate sponsors offering a range of lucky draw prizes including an eight day trip for two to Turkey (courtesy Turkish Airlines and Intrepid Travel), the night was filled with laughs and fun as the audience participated in Aboriginal dances, disco'd and partied until early hours of the morning.

I tremendous contribution by Australia's own Jacob's Creek ensured the guests enjoyed Australia's Top Drop throughout the evening.
