Corowa Girl Guides have been further supported in their efforts to replace the hot water system stolen in November with a $500 donation.
Senior Guides Leader Maree Higgins, who expressed her astonishment at the callous theft and praised the community's subsequent heartwarming and unwavering support, said the latest support from Corowa Social Club was greatly appreciated.
Corowa Rotary Club’s Stacey Price expressed Rotary’s appreciation of the $500 donation which will be directed towards the Whitehead Street wetlands project. Rotary’s project has been subject to vandalism.
Corowa Search and Rescue was grateful for the donation of $500 which will be put towards replenishing first aid stocks.
Corowa Social Club’s President Geoff Cox and vice president Kevin Hartley presented the three cheques on Thursday evening, February 6.
The club was established three years ago by Luke Emonson. The 62-member proud group enjoy supporting the local community.
The club’s support includes donating $1000 in 2023 to the RFS at the Corowa Airport, donating $1,000 to Daniel Hartley and his fund raising for the Black Dog Institute in 2024 and in the same year, supporting one of its own members, Dave who fell very ill; the social club donated $830.00 to help out with medical costs.
“Corowa Social Group are looking forward to donating more funds to our local community - we have fantastic sponsors and every Thursday night we hold raffles at the Corowa Hotel from 6pm,” treasurer Mellisa Hartley, who appreciates the help from Sonia Rhodes, said.
“Any enquiries please come to the Corowa Hotel on a Thursday night from 6pm.”
