Community spirit shines as Euroa prepares for Pink Stumps Day

EUROA Cricket Club is thrilled to announce the return of its much-loved Pink Stumps fundraiser, set to take place on February 1 at Memorial Oval.

This special event, which was last held two years ago, raises funds for the McGrath Foundation, an organization dedicated to providing specialist nurses to support individuals undergoing breast cancer treatment.

Excitingly, the foundation has recently expanded its care to assist those facing all types of cancer treatment.

The highlight of the day will be the Euroa A Grade cricket match against Pine Lodge starting at 1pm, where players will swap their traditional stumps for vibrant pink ones, symbolizing support for those affected by cancer.

In addition to the on-field action, attendees can look forward to an exciting Pink Ladies Afternoon, featuring delicious afternoon tea, fun activities, raffles, an auction, and an inspiring guest speaker.

The organizing committee is currently seeking additional donations for the raffle and auction, with several generous contributions already pledged by Craig McIntosh, Tom Woods, TK Salon, and Mawsons Bakery.

Adding an element of mystery and excitement, Steve Tobin has promised to craft a special surprise for the auction, which is sure to captivate attendees.

The Wine List and Euroa Medical Centre have stepped up as major sponsors for the day, and the club welcomes other businesses to join in supporting this worthy cause. Tickets are available for $30 each and can be purchased at The Nest or online via Eventbrite.

Attendees are encouraged to dress in their finest pink attire, as 'Pink is the Colour of Care.'

This vibrant show of solidarity not only raises funds but also spreads awareness about the importance of support and care for cancer patients.
