Wedding Crashers & Marathons

You certainly can't accuse Mix 92.7's Breakfast Show, Mark Darin and Caroline Hutchison, of not getting behind 'Give Me 5 for Kids'.

Last year, co-host Caroline went water-skiing on the Sunshine Coast's Maroochy River in a wedding dress, and raised $3700 for the appeal. So this year it was Mark's turn.

He committed to doing it if they raised $3500 saying; "I said if we got $3500 I would do it, and we made that'. You can watch the video below.

And now they're pushing it even further with a 25-hour live broadcast currently underway. You can listen live here.

The broadcast begain this morning, and will end tomorrow at 9am. Hopefully, with the target of $25,000 having been met.

The 'Give Me 5 for Kids' finishes this Sunday with 'Jessie's Party', an annual childrens party in the park at Golden Beach, which is an event paying tribute to a Sunshine Coast girl who passed away a few years ago.

Jessie's mother Kelly, told Mix 92.7 "jessie's party is to celebrate all children and all that they go through, not only the ones in hospital, but for all parents to remember just how special children are"
