COTTAGE by the Sea’s annual fair raised $70,000 this month which will go towards helping disadvantaged children.
Five friends from Ocean Grove and Wallington were among the groups supporting the event.
Louie Fox, Ro Billings, Cheryl Ross, Pam Hopkins and Bron Peart have run a Thai Chicken Burger Bar at the fair for four years.
“It’s a fun thing to do and we are just happy to help with a good cause,” Bron said.
“The Cottage does such a good job.”
The five food enthusiasts are all friends and walk together each week.
Together with an egg and bacon stall earlier in the day, they raised $2000 towards the final total.
The stall was the idea of Cottage committee member Sue Reilly.
“Sue found the recipe – she just wanted another variation with the food,” Bron said.
