Barbecue raises $1500
Woy Woy Lions Club held its annual Lions Biggest Barbecue at Rogers Park, Woy Woy, in conjunction with its regular car boot sale.
The club managed to raise $1500 to go towards the Children's Cancer Institute of Australia.
The scheduled day for the fundraiser April 19, was washed out so instead the event was held on Sunday, April 26.
Publicity officer Ms Narelle Penman said all funds raised go towards research into the causes and cures of childhood cancer in Australia.
"Not only have the Woy Woy Lions Club worked amongst the community for such fundraising events as Relay for Life and Clean Up Australia Day, they have also undertaken a range of fundraising events, for both the local and wider community," Ms Penman said.
"Allocation of our funds for local community and individual projects will take place at our meeting on June 15, making way for our new leadership to take over for the coming year - with our changeover of office bearers taking place on July 6."
