Brothers Bring Heart And Muscle To Local Move

When the call went out for a few strong arms to help relocate cupboards and supplies from inside St Vincent de Paul to the Mackay City Girl Guides hut across the road, the Mackay Brothers Football Club stepped up without hesitation.

“There was no fuss, no bother,” said Mackay volunteer Lisa Jamieson.

“All they needed to know was, ‘when and where do you want us?’” And with that, the Brothers arrived in numbers, ready to lend their strength to a good cause.

Demonstrating teamwork and comradery both on and off the field, the Brothers set about packing utes, lifting heavy items, and relocating everything swiftly and safely to its new home at the Girl Guide Hut.

“The comradery and teamwork came to the fore,” Lisa said, as the task was tackled with smiles and good humour.

True to the old saying, “many hands make light work,” the job was done in no time thanks to the club’s collective effort and can-do attitude.

This is just one of the many quiet yet powerful acts of kindness that reflect the heart of Mackay.

“It’s this community spirit that helps make Mackay such a great place to live, work and play,” Lisa added.

“A big shout out to Mackay Brothers Football Club.

“Much appreciated Brothers!”
