A new midwinter Christmas dinner fundraiser is proving popular, with funds going to two local charities.

The Midwinter Christmas Dinner is a replacement for the Swimarathon, which organisers Rotary say received few entrants this year.

The dinner is being run by two members of the Rotary Satellite club of Ōrewa-Millwater, Brian Mullan and Theo Simeonidis who have several sponsors on board.

It will be held on Saturday, June 26 at Millies Café in Millwater and include entertainer John McGough, aka The Trumpet Guy.

A quality raffle, with excellent prizes, including craft gins, is included.

Tickets are limited to 80, and as the paper goes to print they are selling fast.

Proceeds will be shared between Love Soup Hibiscus Coast and the Hibiscus Coast Community House’s foodbank in Ōrewa.

Tickets: email brian@mullan.com
