Motueka Pool Fundraising newsletter

Sue from Motueka

If you would like to receive my newsletter please send me your email address so I can send you news, updates and events.
Our first fundraising boot sale on Sunday May 4th was well received by buyers and sellers alike. We drew our raffle (donated by Sue Nalder - thanks Sue) winning ticket number was 124 won by Mary - with a surprise - there was a $50 not embedded in the elephant's legs. Mary has donated the $50 back to the fundraising account (thanks Mary).
Our next event is a second Car Boot Sale in the RSA car park on SATURDAY 7TH JUNE 9am - 1pm . We hope to have a coffee cart on site. Sites cost $10 and you keep the proceeds from your sales. Book a site through Humanitix (check it out) or with Linda 027 940 8882, Maree 027 528 9965 or Sue 027 544 3002.
