Enjoying their time

Pam Burley and Laurine King were delighted with the response from the community at the Seniors Expo.

Seniors Expo and Spinners and Weavers
Pam Burley of Southern Downs Regional Council said there was “a great diversity in the groups offering information, social connection and services in the one location” at the Seniors Expo last week.
“People making the most of this time of their lives is most important.”
Jean McDonald and Dawn Booth from the Spinners and Weavers Group, Warwick, who now meet at their new location at St Marks Resource Centre, Grafton Street, Warwick, are on the lookout for a secretary for their group.
Anyone who has computer skills and would like to help this enthusiastic group can call Helen on 0424 879 664.

Big Bikes
Nick ‘Stansey’ Stanes from Brisbane joined in the Rotary Club of Toowoomba City and the Darling Downs Harley Owners Group to bring Cruise for Cancer Ride to Warwick last weekend.
The Warwick Cancer Support Group supplied morning tea on Sunday to the visitors.
Ride participant Sue Schluter said the first $10,000 raised from the ride will go towards sponsoring Room 16 at the Olive McMahan Lodge in Toowoomba for patients while receiving treatment and their families who live out of town.
“Anything extra will go towards the Queensland Cancer Council,” she said.
