We had a good time joining in the country-wide celebration of the Melbourne Cup. Jo Jarvis and Barb Anderson saved the day with last minute sweeps, Sue Riley organised a wonderful lunch, Bill and Trevor did a great job at the bar and everyone was a winner.
There were a lot of glamorous hats but Jen Ardill was judged to be first past the post. Peggy made a great jockey and her little whip kept her partner under control!
Sue Riley presented cheques for $4570 each to the MV Hospital Auxiliary and Warringah Pittwater Rural Fire Service. Peninsula Bridge Club's fund raising helps support these two very worthy local organisations. This is the largest donation the RFS has received!
The money is raised from the two charity days as well as from the second hand book recycling table and the plants (thanks to Robin Hoey).
I would like to thank Jackie at Hot Lox in Newport who generously donated a hamper of Aveda products (valued at $350) to be raffled.
Thanks to all those who made the lovely soups and desserts and donated to the hampers and bought raffle tickets.
