Annual Charity Lunch

Over 180 guests helped raise $13,000 for Vietnam Veterans.  It was a truly fun and happy afternoon at the Hellenic Club in Woden, with lots of wonderful auction and raffle items.  The green and orange theme worked well with many outfits using the two colours.  The drives in convertible cars auction, or "going topless", raised close to $1000.

Mike Frame did a great job as MC for the day, and the guest speaker was Brigadier William Rolfe OA (Ret'd) who gave an entertaining talk about his life after being injured in Vietnam. Congratulations go to the Women in Racing committee for organising such a successful event.

A few pictures from the day are below.  As usual, if you can't see the slideshow, click here.
