Tooraweenah Golf’s cancer fundraiser

After raising more than $4000 last year, the Tooraweenah Golf Club cancer fundraiser event is back and ready for another great year.

The popular event will tee-off again this weekend with the highly-anticipated auction to follow after the rounds are completed. Club president, Dan Harte, is looking forward to welcoming everyone back to this fun annual event for a great day on the green.

“This year, we have had so many donations from lots of local businesses, which has been absolutely fantastic,” Mr Harte said.

“We have a barbecue from Mitre 10, a cargo net from Nutrien, fuel and meat vouchers from Gilgandra businesses, boots from Elders, tyres…it’s going to be a great day,” he added.

Originally established as just a golf event to raise money for Gilgandra and District Cancer Fundraisers, the day has now developed into a much larger do, he explained.

“Last year, we really got a lot of donations after COVID-19 for the auction, and it just grew from there,” Mr Harte said.

With a bit of rain last week, the course is now looking lush and green for the big day for both players and a great local charity.
