Bubbles and orange juice will be served on arrival, and the Bar will be open upstairs.

Money raised through the purchase of Christmas tree donation tags at $5 each will be donated to the Community Kitchen at the House of Hope in Nuriootpa, for their Christmas dinner for people in need. This amazing group receives no funding other than donations from the community.

There also will be a raffle with the prize being a “large and rather gorgeous gingerbread house” perfect for Christmas
