Gardner Vaughan Group Director Sam Gardner says the builder-developer received the bungalow experience as part of its package as a major sponsor and decided to ‘give it back to the community’.
“Who better to give it away to than people who wouldn’t otherwise ask. They’re very generous with their time and they don’t ask for anything back,” Sam explains.
“I think that’s the pure definition of selflessness. I love to be in a position where we can potentially reward those people.
“From what I’ve heard, it is a fantastic event. I think it’s a pretty cool package to be able to get and what a great reward for someone who truly deserves it.”
Sam says Gardner Vaughan Group is a family-grown and owned builder-developer, based in Brisbane, which works on projects across South East Queensland including Redcliffe.
Supporting Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival is the perfect way to connect with the Redcliffe community.
“Everyone seems to know about the festival and it’s nice that we can get involved to this extent. We’re very keen to get involved in Redcliffe and the community,” Sam says.
Moreton Bay Food + Wine Festival is at Woody Point’s Apex Park from August 23-25. Visit the website for more information and tickets.
