Ladies ready for pink fiesta

-

WEENGALLON’S annual Pink Ladies Day is set to be a lavish celebratio­n as organisers embrace this year’s fiesta theme.

Weengallon Pink Ladies Day president Emma Montgomery said fiesta was one of those words that made people smile because it was all about spending special time with family and friends.

Weengallon, a tiny town between Goondiwind­i and St George, has become famous for attracting 600 pink-clad women each year for a luscious day of lunch and laughter.

Weengallon Pink Ladies Day raises more than $40,000 each year, which helps support the position of a local breast care nurse and the Olive McMahon Lodge in Toowoomba which provides free accommodat­ion for country cancer patients and their carers.

This year guests will indulge in shopping at more than 30 luxury stores before entering the main marquee to be entertaine­d by guest speaker Robyn Moore on August 30.

Mrs Montgomery said Ag Force Queensland had come on board as a major sponsor to bring in the well-known voice-over artist, breast cancer survivor and motivation­al speaker.

“Robyn Moore is dynamic and her keynote address will be high-octane fun, leaving us all feeling fabulous and energised,” Mrs Montgomery said.

“Weengallon Pink Ladies Day has always been about creating a vibrant backdrop that brings wonderful women together for a great day out.”

Tickets for Weengallon’s Fiesta Pink Ladies Day go on sale on Wednesday, July 12 at pinkladies­day.com.

Tickets are $80 which includes five raffle tickets. Tickets must be pre-paid and numbers are limited.
