Belinda and Georgia Wall at a previous Melbourne Cup event

If you are looking for a reason to frock up and enjoy Melbourne Cup this year, then why not support children’s medical research at the same time?

The event has become one of CMRI Gerringong’s major fundraisers.

They invite you to enjoy canapes on the deck overlooking Crooked River and 7 Mile Beach as well as a champagne on arrival. This will be followed by a buffet lunch, along with live coverage of the Cup, sweeps and raffles and a TAB run. A courtesy bus can be booked through the club to take you home.

There are prizes for men’s and women’s fashions so organise your friends, dress up and enjoy a great day out.

Details: Tues 3 Nov, from 11.30am, Gerroa Boat Fisherman’s Club.
Tickets $50 from Cronin’s Liquor. Enquiries 0417342606
