Tea Cosy Expo banners stolen

Banners advertising a Tea Cosy Expo run by the Woy Woy Lions Club have been stolen in broad daylight.

The canvas banners were cut from the railway fence between 11am and 1pm last Tuesday, May 23 and "taken away for some unknown reason", said club president Mr Greg Head.

"The Tea Cosy Expo is our major fund raiser for the year and we have now lost valuable advertising to the public.

"The cost of replacing the banners will be just on $1000 and this is a cost our Lions Club can not afford when we are desperately trying to raise funds for the local community."

The Expo will be held from 9am to 5pm on Saturday and Sunday, June 10 and 11, at the Umina Beach Surf Club.

Mr Head said the expensive three-metre-long banners had been padlocked to the railway fence at the Ocean Beach Rd and Charlton St intersections with Railway St, Woy Woy.

He said the banners were cut at the corners leaving the padlocks on the fence.

Approval had been obtained from the Woy Woy station manager before placing the banners.

The club had contacted Central Coast Council, Service NSW and the police "to try and establish who removed these banners".

"All the parties we have been able to contact have been very helpful.

"However no-one could offer any help to locate the banners," said Mr Head.

"We have lodged police reports about these missing banners."

Mr Head said: "If anyone has information that can shed light on who may have removed banners or where they may now be located, we would like to hear from them on 0478 959 895. or by email to wwplions@yahoo.com.au."
