Dear Friends
The fete is coming up very soon! We need volunteers for the set up and for the day of the fete. Also, we need donations of goods. (Further details in the newsletter.) Some kitchen equipment needs replacing (commercial freezer and food processor) so additional funds will be very helpful.
The Fete Raffle will run for six months and will be drawn after the Christmas Market (28 November). There will be monthly draws of $50 grocery vouchers, an incentive to buy tickets early. Once again there are super prizes to be won. Tickets can be purchased online or by using paper tickets ($2 each).
Would you be interested in a Zumba class? Zumba is a popular, global fitness program that blends high-energy Latin and international music with upbeat dance choreography. If there is sufficient interest, we will start a class on 1 July (Wednesday at 2 pm-3 pm, cost will be $7).
Don’t forget two public holidays this month (1 and 8 June).
Warm regards,
Andrea Dean, CEO
