Easter fete at Patonga

The Patonga Progress Association will hold its annual Easter Fete on Easter Saturday, March 22, from 10am.

The fete will be held at the Progress Hall on the corner of Bay and Brisk St, Patonga.

"The Easter Fete is a much-loved Patonga tradition that has been held every Easter for as far back as Patongans can remember," association secretary Ms Judy Singer said.

This year the fete will feature arts, crafts and jewellery stalls from local Central Coast artisans.

Homemade cakes, preserves, plants, books, bric-a-brac and gifts will also be on sale.

Sausage sandwiches and tea and coffee will also be available.

Ms Singer said artists Jocelyn Maughan and Robin Norling from the Patonga Bakehouse Gallery would paint portraits for a $5 donation.

"We will be spinning the chocolate wheel for a chance to win scrumptious Easter egg prizes," Ms Singer said.

A children's colouring competition would also be held with an Easter egg prize.

"Money raised this year will go towards improvements to our Progress Hall which has been the focal point for Patonga community events for over 50 years."
