Club holds Christmas in July for charity
A Hardys Bay Club's annual Christmas in July dinner raised funds for Coast Shelter this year.
The event featured a two-course Christmas buffet, complimentary sparkling wine, trivia, lucky door prizes and a raffle, with a visit from Santa himself.
Money from ticket sales, raffles and donation boxes went to Coast Shelter to raise funds for emergency accommodation.
In addition to its fundraising activities, the Club also collected blankets, jumpers and other warm clothing all throughout July as part of their Share the Warmth campaign.
"Unfortunately, the number of our fellow citizens who are doing it tough increases all the time.
"Support from our community allows us to make sure that families and children are kept warm this winter," said Coast Shelter executive officer Mr Laurie Maher.
