MOGGILL QCWA Activities 2011

Moggill QCWA continues to thrive - nearly 100 members with ages from 25 to 85.  The branch, which held its 8th birthday this month, is renowned for its friendliness and the activities on offer are wide and diverse.  Ladies who join can sing in the choir, act with the drama group, sew, knit, play bridge or mahjong or engage in the many fundraising events throughout the year.  There is a social evening for ladies who cannot come to the daytime activities where a light meal is served followed by a guest speaker.  Most of these activities are featured on our blogsite.

The recent floods saw the Moggill ladies helping out at the Uniting Church evacuation centre – making sandwiches, cakes, teas/coffees and delivering food to the volunteers who were working in the area.  The country families are not forgotten either and the QCWA State Office is arranging for new linen, cleaning packs, personal hygiene packs & baby supplies to be sent out to branches in rural Queensland for distribution.  The State Office is also asking for cash donations – 100% of which will be distributed in the form of vouchers to families ravaged by flood or cyclone recently.  These can be used to buy food or pay essential household bills.  If you wish to donate, please visit the following website: www.qcwa.org.au

So if you are new to the area and would like to meet some new people with similar interests, please contact Margaret on 3202 9189 or smiths@bellbowrie.com   - we would love to hear from you.
