Catered for by local food whiz, Rachael McCarthy, the food was delicious. "Jimmy Craz Band" from Tamworth with their great repertoire ensured the dance floor got a workout.
The night was topped off with a very successful auction of locally donated items by auctioneer and real estate agent Geoff Bartlett from First National Real Estate. Organisers extend a huge thank you to local businesses with their generous donations and all their supporters. The ball raised $6,495.90 to be tallied to the already amazing amount of funds raised by this event so far. Planning 2017 ball is underway.
