Organiser Joanne Dean has been involved in raising funds for breast cancer for many years, following the passing of her mother with the condition.
Breast Cancer Trials is a group of world-leading breast cancer doctors and researchers based in Australia and New Zealand with a commitment to find better treatments and prevention, through clinical trials research, for people affected by breast cancer.
The organisation is on a mission for people affected by this form of cancer to live better, to live longer and to never die from breast cancer.
The event taking place is a three person teams event sponsored by Finley Bakery and Patisserie.
It is not necessary to have a full team; organisers are happy to place single entries for this fun day.
This can be done by phoning Joanne Dean on 0488 115 076 or ladies captain Sharon Pyle on 0418 882 265.
There are lots of surprises to be put in place on the day so make sure you enter and participate in the fun while supporting this great fundraiser.

The cold, wet and miserable conditions last Saturday led to an executive decision being made by the Finley Lions Club members rostered on for the day to give the wood raffle a miss.
However, they expect to be up and running again next Saturday and are looking forward to the usual amazing community support.
