Donated Goggles Arrive in Warburton
We’ve had an update from Port to Pub swimmer Troy Santen that the goggles you generously donated to school kids in Warburton have arrived.
The pool is open and everyone has a pair for swimming lessons! With the warm weather now, the goggles will be used for months to come.
Several hundred pairs were donated through the Port to Pub collection, so Troy’s going to arrange to send some to the two other pools in the Ngaanyatjarra Lands at Blackstone and Warakurna.
As you can see, your donations have made a real difference. So, thank you!
