All profits from the luncheon will go towards this wonderful project.
Fundraisers like this wouldn’t go ahead without the wonderful support received by local businesses who generously donate prizes for raffles and door prizes.
The club’s raffles on the day raised over $1060.
Sing Australia also entertained guests during the meal with a lot of the ladies joining in with some of the popular songs.
Corowa CWA provided all the lovely cakes, scones and slices, while local businesses both here and Howlong provided the savories and sandwiches.
A special thank you to the Corowa Civic Bowls Club for the use of their room as well as providing bar staff and Erica who did an amazing job in the kitchen with the help of Sharon and girls from the Corowa High School who also did a great job waitressing.
