The committee would like to thank their many sponsors of the evening who made donations of gifts to be included in the raffle on the night.
In excess of 30 prizes were up for grabs which also included a load of firewood cut by one of the committee members. The running of this raffle was generously supported by those who attended, with many responding that they were happy to be supporting such a great cause.
A big thank you goes out to Inverell FDBs, Inverell Motorcycles, Inverell Fishing & Hunting, Elders Inverell, Rural Wrecking, Bearco, Enhance Your Healing, D Spinks & Sons Mobile Seed Grading, Liquorland and Bunnings Inverell, with other prizes donated by Committee Members. Another big thank you to Inverell Community Radio STAFM, 2NZ, Gem FM and Inverell Times for including the event in their community announcements.
One of the major prizes being a 3 x 3 gazebo donated by Inverell Fishing & Hunting was taken home by a family attending from Gulgong, while the other raffle prize of the beautiful handmade quilt was taken back to Wee Waa. It’s overwhelming for the Committee that people are willing to travel from far and wide to support the event.
A special thank you also goes to all the committee members and the many other helpers in the lead-up and on the night. The Community Hall is only kept open by the generosity of these exceptional people being dedicated to such a great community asset.
