With raffles available, ticket proceeds supporting Lower Hutt Plunket, and your ticket giving you access to a 20% discount on all items at California Home and Garden? Lower Hutt Soroptimists invite you to join us in supporting local community groups on Sunday 25th September, 4pm-6.30pm. Tickets $25, contact Vanessa 0211-207-107. A great way to round off our first day of daylight savings! Thanks to our sister Soroptimists in Wellington for organising this event :-)
