Amazing Beginning For 2025

New Years Eve Fundraiser Cabaret

Parks Hall, Portarlington, was jumping on New Year's Eve with the sensational sounds of the 60's and 70's from the band Blurred Lines. Attendees embraced the theme and came dressed in their psychedelic, hippy, peace man outfits adding a 'cool' vibe to the ambience of the cabaret. All danced the night away and the evening was declared the best night ever!

Thanks must go to Alicia, Jenny and the team for all they did to make the night such a success. Thank you everyone. Initial estimates suggest the evening raised a whopping $6000 for The Smith Family!
