Held at the Pambula Beach Surf Club, guests enjoyed a three-course lunch, with lots of entertainment, lucky door prizes and a raffle.
Topping this off, guests enjoyed a very professional fashion parade with outfits provided by Swannies of Merimbula and the Pambula Op Shop.
“We wish to sincerely thank all the local businesses who supported us enabling us to raise much needed funds for the purchase of urgently needed equipment and creature comforts for the residents of Imlay House,” Ms Henderson said.
“We must also thank the students from Lumen Christi who came and worked tirelessly waiting tables and in the kitchen.
“And don't forget the models who displayed the outfits so beautifully.
Our auxiliary ladies volunteer their time and talents to fund raising for Imlay House and to all those who contribute in one way or another, we are very grateful and thank you,” she said.
