Fete fun in Kilcoy

Cakes and other food items were as popular as ever at this year’s Kilcoy Hospital Auxiliary Fete, held at the hospital grounds on Saturday, May 25.

Kilcoy State High School’s home economics class was among those to provide homemade food.

Recyclable garden art was another drawcard, and Myles Dunn provided entertainment as he sang and played his guitar.

Mark Weller was the auctioneer, as auction items included tables, chairs, lounge chairs, a garden mulcher, and a Queensland maple dresser.

Other prizes which were snapped up included quilts, a crochet rug, wine cooler, pamper pack, tote bag and D’Arcy Doyle print.

Another distinct part of proceedings was a minute’s silence in honour of long-term Kilcoy Hospital Auxiliary treasurer Caril Davis, who passed away in April.

All funds go towards equipment for patients at Kilcoy Hospital, while the auxiliary also purchases gifts for people who are hospitalised during occasions such as Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Easter and Christmas.

Event organisers thanked everyone who attended the fete, as well as everyone who volunteered to help make the event productive and successful.
