Brayden and the bronco’s in brisbane

This year at Radio Lollipop, we have been lucky enough to be affiliated with the NRMA Brisbane Broncos. Thanks to the Brisbane Broncos Community Corner, over the course of the 2012 NRL season, we received 5 sets of family passes to various home games. These tickets were issued to our Monthly Prize Winners and all have been worthy recipients.

Brayden Adler, 11 years old, was one of our winners and was so excited to be going to his first Broncos game. Brayden is just one of many extremely brave and awesome kids at the Mater Children’s Hospital. Not only did the Doctor’s give permission for Brayden to get a pass-out for the game, he also got to meet Buck, the Broncos mascot and have a photo with him. Check out the photo; looks like he had a great time.

Radio Lollipop would like to thank the Brisbane Broncos Community Corner for their support this year. Just goes to show how a combined community spirit makes a difference.
