The Cove Village at Daleys Point is set to host a Biggest Morning Tea on Tuesday, May 10, and is hoping to better last year’s effort, which raised more than $2,000 for the Cancer Council fundraiser.
Resident John McLean said the village supports the Cancer Council fundraiser every year and members of the public from outside the village were welcome to attend.
“A cover charge of $5 will get you tea or coffee with freshly baked scones,” he said.
“There will also be raffles and a silent auction … all great fun, with all money going to this most deserving cause.”
Items donated for the silent auction include vouchers from a variety of businesses including Bunnings, Empire Bay Tavern, BWS, Daly‘s café and Waves hairdresser.
Goods and services from IGA, McPhee‘s pharmacy and Nev and Jim‘s Butchery will be on offer, along with flowers and gifts, a patchwork quilt and a three-piece luggage set.
For raffle will be a deluxe fishing rod and $50 voucher from Anaconda.
“Obviously any donations would also be truly appreciated,” McLean said.
“A lot of people don’t even realise our village is here, as it is tucked away, but we have 112 units catering for retirees.
“My wife and I have been here for five years and absolutely love it.”
The fun will get underway at 10am sharp at The Cove Village.
