The committee takes great pleasure in announcing the winner of our first 500 Club draw.

Larissa Pullen is the winner of $1000 with number 275 in the first 500 Club draw which was conducted on Thursday, June 27 at the Cowra Bowling and Recreation Club.

Congratulations to Larissa on the win.

The commitee will be conducting another draw this year and it will be drawn at the New Year's Eve Beach Party Spectacular.

Everyone is invited to attend - spread the word to friends, family and neighbours.

The committee has also listened to you, the people of Cowra, who may have wanted tickets but considered them too expensive.

So for the second draw, the numbers will now be $5 per number with the prize of $500.

In addition to the 500 Club, the group are currently selling tickets for a "Christmas in July" raffle $2 each or three for $5.

There are some fantastic prizes with a total of 11 prizes and we would like to thank all of the Cowra businesses that donated vouchers, gifts and packages.

We are selling tickets outside Woolworths on Saturdays from 9am until 3pm.

The draw will be conducted at Aldi on Saturday, July 27.

The committee is working hard adding some great new activities to this year's event.

Last year's beach party was very well received by the Cowra community, and is a hot topic amongst the younger generation.

If you can spare a couple of hours of your Saturday, the committee is eager to hear from you.

We are also on the hunt for volunteers on the night.

Growth of events means more people are needed to run them.
