Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea: Thank you to everyone in the Canowindra community who attended the Biggest Morning Tea last week. Total money raised for the morning was $1,750 and the raffle winner was Debbie Guihot. A special thanks must go to all the volunteers especially Ken Parry for fetching and carrying all the tables and chairs. These mornings would never be so successful without the whole town helping in some way!
