Easter fete at Patonga

The 2012 Patonga Easter Fete will be held at the Patonga Progress Hall on Saturday, April 7.

The annual Easter fete is one of the major yearly fundraisers for the Patonga Progress Association.

The money goes to association projects such as improving the local hall, providing public seating around Patonga and keeping the village free-to-air television transmitter going for the benefit of the community.

The annual Easter fete will run from 9am until 1pm and will include stalls, a sausage sizzle and Easter eggs to be won on a "chocolate wheel".

"A visit to the Patonga fete is always a fun day out for everyone and we encourage visitors to make a day of it by coming along to the fete in the morning then head down to beautiful Patonga Beach in the afternoon with your picnic rug to have a swim, a fish or a snooze in the sun," said progress association organiser Ms Judy Singer.

Ms Singer said the usually sleepy village came alive with the fete contributing to the enjoyment of the locals, as well as weekenders, campers and day trippers who come to town on the Easter long weekend.
