Olivia’s Place Gala Dinner & Charity Auction Night

Kirsten invites our riding community to support their Olivia’s Place Gala Dinner & Charity Auction Night. It will be at Lardner Park starting at 6:30pm on Saturday 17 August 2019.

Olivia’s Place is a local non profit organisation doing much needed good work in our community. Their existence, operation and service depends highly on sponsorships and donations. Team DSR is attempting to field a table. It would be great to show our support by attending.

Contact Kirsten (0402 220 445) or https://oliviasplace.org.au/gala for tickets. $100 per person for a table of ten or $110 for individuals.
