Hi Anthony
I have done a few public open nights with our society. My suggestion would be as follows;
ED80 moon then Omega Centauri as another option.
Dob Saturn and perhaps a galaxy, M83 or M104 or 5128 something bright relatively easy to find.
Binos (assuming you have a tripod) point them up around Crux or Carina around Eta Carina.
Definitely have things planned so if you are asked how far is it, what constellation is what (particularly zodiac) you can answer with confidence. Also a laser pointer can be very handy.
God luck with your mini public night you'll have a ball.
