The prizes for the Snowy Hydro raffle are currently being displayed in the front window of Botanica Romantica. Proprietor Garielle Ward is holding one of the baskets up for grabs. Botanica Romantica is now open Sundays.

Simone and Garielle Ward, the team at Botanica Romantica opposite the IGA in Neill Street will be selling tickets in the raffle to raise essential funds for the Snowy Hydro Rescue Helicopter. This wonderful service covers the areas of the south coast (Moruya and Bateman’s Bay) to the Snowy Mountains to Young, Harden and surrounds including Crookwell and Boorowa. The service is staffed by a professional team of medics and could save your life or that of your loved ones. They provide flights to Canberra and Sydney hospital for urgent medical attention from road accidents and other emergencies. Please support this wonderful and professional service by buying a ticket $2 for one or 3 for $5. Tickets are also available at Barnes Emporium and Cafe, 180 Clothing, Kruger Medical Centre and Harden Pharmacy.
