Rolfe Property Services is hosting a meal and giveaways in the Silks Room, with the aim of raising $30,000 for the Marymead, the not-for-profit family support service. Tickets are via eventbrite.
This year, contributions from the day will help fund a bus for Marymead's Kids Companions support group. Without transport facilities, some children may otherwise not be able to participate in the group.
General admission to the course for the eight-race meeting is free. There will be a free jumping castle and face painting for the kids from 3pm.
