Money raised to buy storage shed

Ettalong Beach Arts and Crafts Centre has purchased new storage after hosting its annual Raku Firing Day recently.

President Ms Thel Browne said the day was a "wonderful success" with huge interest shown from the local community.

"Our second term surely ended with a huge bang," Ms Browne said.

"Our Raku Day was such a wonderful success and we made enough money to buy another storage shed that we are desperately in need of.

"Volunteers cooked up a delicious breakfast for all the workers and then continued selling sausage sandwiches throughout the day.

"I can't thank the pottery girls enough for the tremendous effort they put into making and firing over 60 pots.

"We were to finish at 3pm but with the number of people having bought pots, it was closer to 4.30pm when we finally finished the clean up."
