At 2.00pm today the Boot Sale team will welcome any first time volunteers to set up for tomorrow morning. The third Saturday of the month seems almost fortnightly at the rate it comes around. Likewise, Café Church, which this Sunday will be a special event, with a 3.00 pm gathering at the Bakers ’home, Lake Boga. The group will visit the rotating Dairy at milking time, certainly a new experience for most, then back to Bakers for a BBQ tea. People should bring a chair and something to drink.
For those staying in town, at 2.00pm there will be a variety concert in the Anglican Church next to Swan Hill District Hospital, then afternoon tea in the Function Centre. Admission is $5.00 for adults, children free. The money will be passed to a representative of the District Chaplaincy group for their much needed ministry in our local schools. Last week it was stated t
hat the donations were going to the Hamlin Fistula Hospital in Ethiopia, but that will happen at the Scholarship Awards concert in November. There will be some former award winners performing this Sunday, also some new music students among the adults who will be bringing their musical entertainment to , it is hoped, a large supportive audience.
The church music group would like to expand its number, currently at four people with two “emergencies.” Our ‘brass man’ has been in hospital so we will miss his lead and wish him a good recovery.
On the third Sunday the Op shop at Nyah West is open from 2.30 to 4.30 pm for weekend browsers, so this weekend there is something for everybody no matter what the weather
