Along with a raffle for ham, pork, turkey and mixed goodie bags, the ladies also took the opportunity to donate $600 to the Cowra Information and Neighbourhood Centre’s (CINC) domestic violence crisis accommodation.
The money, raised throughout the year through raffles, is given at the end of year luncheon to a local charity every year.
The cheque was presented to CINC CEO Fran Stead.
“I would like to say how grateful I was when Joan came and explained what the lady bowlers had chosen to do and that they had chosen CINC and our domestic violence crisis home as the chosen charity for this year,” she said.
“Our figures for last year, for those 182 families, 81 of those families had experienced some form of domestic violence and that’s just us, those are not Cowra’s figures.
“Those numbers are larger than that.”
At the conclusion of the lunch, Betty Morgan was chosen to cut the cake alongside Joan Bailey.
