The Melbourne Cup Long Lunch at Awapuni Racecourse last Tuesday was a huge success, over $165,000.00 was raised on the day! All funds will go directly to supporting the everyday operational costs of the Grassroots Trust Rescue Helicopter that serves the residents of the Manawatu/Whanganui regions and beyond. A huge thanks to all involved including our own team here at Creative Catering for their contribution! What a success! ✨🚁

What a day! 🥂 We were thrilled to host 305 guests across 37 beautifully set tables yesterday for the annual Grassroots Trust Melbourne Cup Long Lunch, proudly arranged by Property Brokers.

Guests enjoyed a delicious buffet lunch, afternoon tea platters, and all the racing action live on the big screen. 🎥🐎

Both a silent and traditional auction helped raise vital funds for the Grassroots Rescue Helicopter, even the floral centrepieces were donated and auctioned off to support this incredible cause. 💐🚁

A huge thank you to everyone who attended and contributed, what an amazing community effort! 💛
