The Mary Potter Foundation went to the races......

Thank you to everyone who supported this year's event. We are currently finalising figures for this event, but estimate we will raise around $40,000 for patient and family care in the Mary Potter Hospice.

Watch this space, who knows, if you joined us, maybe your picture might appear here soon!

The 2010 Strathalbyn Race Day was proudly supported by BankSA, Vili's Cakes and Pastries, Catholic Church Insurances, RV Jordan, Lady Mary Downer, Lion Nathan, Hurley's Arkaba Hotel, Southern Quarries Direct Mix Group, Scarpantoni Wines of McLaren Vale and Field Public Relations.

The 2009 Strathalbyn Race Day was held on Wednesday April 1st 2009.

Over 600 guests enjoyed beautiful weather, fine food and wine, and great company at the Race day.

The Mary Potter Foundation was pleased to welcome race sponsors Hurleys Arkaba, Catholic Church Insurance services, our wonderful patron Lady Downer, Southern Quarries, and RV Jordan this year, and we greatly appreciated the generosity of our friends at Scarpantoni Wines of McLaren Vale for providing all the premium wine, and the Calvary Catering team for the wonderful catering .

Our appreciation and thanks to Lion Nathan for the supply of beer for the day.
As always the desserts were provided by our good friends Rosemary and Vilis Milisits, from Vili's cakes and pastries .

It goes without saying that none of this would have been possible without the hard work and dedication of our volunteers, thank you for all that you do.

Flutters and friendships were made, all whilst supporting a very worthwhile cause, The Mary Potter Hospice.

Thank you to everyone who attended.
