Annual High Tea a fine time for locals

The Young Hospital Auxiliary held their annual High Tea on Saturday afternoon, 12 April 2025.

The High Tea was held in St John’s Anglican Hall and was attended by 96 ladies and gentlemen.

It is one of the Auxiliary’s major fund raisers to provide equipment for our local health service.

Mothers’ and grandmothers’ fine crockery and linen was on display along with pretty table decorations.

Tables groaned under the weight of food cooked by Auxiliary members.

This year featured a display of three beautiful vintage weddings gowns supplied by Judith Langfield.

One to capture attention was a magnolia satin long sleeve dress with a beautifully decorated matching train worn in 1937 by Miss Dorothy Daly when she married Mr John Roles at St Mary's Church Young.

Members of the Ladies Aqua Fit attended in force and generously made a presentation of $1000 to the Auxiliary.

President Janice Ward thanked the ladies for the generosity and support of the Auxiliary.

Janice Ward thanked the business houses who donated the prizes for the raffle.
