Stump up for a massive hit

The Betty Blockbuster for Pink Stumps Day was a massive hit with more than $4500 raised on the day.
The Pink Stumps Day was held at Tewantin cricket oval on Saturday and all funds raised are due to be donated to the McGrath Foundation.
Event organiser and local real estate principal Rosemary Callaghan said the event was wonderful and she thanked everyone who helped make the day such a success.
“I would very much like to thank Ricky’s Woodfire Grill and manager Rhys Kelly who cooked and supplied drinks on the day,” she said.
“Also Prince’s Supa IGA Noosa Junction Plaza, who sponsored the sausage sizzle, and Brett Lee and Jarrod from Tewantin Noosa Cricket Club and the Rodgers family for all their support.”
Rosemary said the day couldn’t have happened if it wasn’t for the support of local businesses and community members which donated prizes for the raffle or donned their pink gear to play on the day.
