Hospice Race Day Tickets Galloping Away

Toowoomba Hospice has sold over 170 tickets for Saturday 14th August’s Race Day at Clifford Park.

Chairman of the Toowoomba Hospice Association Mr Graham Barron OAM said he was happy with the response so far to the 7th Annual Race Day. “We hope to sell another 50 – 100 tickets by the end of next Tuesday (10th August) as we have to have catering numbers in by the close of business on that day”

This is one of the Hospices’ major fundraising/social events and will raise money to be used to assist the daily operations of this important community facility. Mr. Barron said the Hospice’s Mission is to provide free professional palliative care for all ages, based on mutual respect and trust for those who come to us and their families.

Hospice Chairman Graham Barron and Toowoomba Turf Club Secretary Mr. Aaron Clancy inspect the Cushion Track in preparation for the Toowoomba Hospice Race Day on August 14th from 2.30pm.

Tickets can be purchased from the Toowoomba Hospice in O’Quinn Street, phoning during normal business hours on 07 4659 8500 or email admin.toowoombahospice@bigpond.com Ticket price is $55.00 per head and includes your entry to the races, a complimentary drink and nibbles upon arrival, special smorgasbord dinner, prizes for the best dressed female, male and best hat and a silent auction to top off a wonderful day at the races.
