Simon Marnie – popular weekend presenter on ABC Radio – will be special guest at the next Lower Blue Mountains Rotary Community Night – planned for Tuesday, October 20.
 
Members of the wider Penrith and Lower Mountains communities are welcome to attend the evening and share the insight into the life and times of this colourful personality.
 
Marnie has been a long time supporter of Rotary clubs and a huge variety of community events. He was very supportive of victims of the horrific Lower Mountains bushfires two years ago.
 
Born and raised on Sydney’s North Shore, Simon Marnie has lived and breathed radio all his life – commencing as station mascot at 2UW in the 1980s. He moved on to Triple J and later conceived and produced SBS TV’s music show, Nomad.  He has produced on WOW TV and reported on ABC TV’s TVTV, before getting back to mainstream ABC radio via Tony Delroy’s NightLife.
 
Now firmly ensconced in the Weekends Show, Simon says he loves the shift and everything about Sydney weekends.
 
Members of the public keen to enjoy this special community night should ring Rotarian Heather Chourlianis on 0424 002 314 by 5 pm on Sunday, October 18, to book.  The special event will be held in the Emu Plains Sports and Recreation Club (Leonay Golf Club) – 6.30 for 7 pm. Price is $25 per head for a two course meal and coffee/tea.
