Fund-Raising Autumn Lunch

Fund-Raising Autumn Lunch – 20th November 2022

Our yearly Autumn Lunch had to be put on hold due to Covid however we finally managed to hold our first one since 2019! A clear hit with our members as it was very well attended with 187 adults, 39 children and 21 volunteers helping throughout the day. The day began with holy mass celebrated by Fr. Savio, guests were then treated to a lavish lunch that consisted of a welcome drink including multiple appetisers, an entrée of pumpkin risotto, pasta pomodoro for the children, our traditional spit-roast pork, a selection of roast vegetables, homemade desserts and homemade petit fours to go with our afternoon coffee. The children were then occupied after their lunch with a puppet show. This event is organised by the great team involved in VOTO Council. The bulk of the food was prepared and served by our volunteers, which without their help we would not be able to hold this successful event. The afternoon wrapped up with a raffle consisting of 16 prizes that were all donated by various generous parties which helped contribute to the funds received. To all those that sponsored, supported and donated in anyway including all those that attended, thank you for helping us make this day a great success. Without you all we would not be able to fund-raise for our much loved special friends.
