Arlene Collins donation
Posted by Michael Fuller in Hall Activities

Patricia Burke (l) is pleased to accept the donation from the artist, Arlene Collins

Part of the support for the Hall and the Bernie Burke Memorial Golf Tournament comes from appreciative citizens throughout our region. This year Arlene Collins has once again helped us out with the donation of a very beautiful and valuable print. Tickets for this are now on sale at all Hall events and the art piece will go to the lucky recipient during the Bernie Burke Golf Memorial Tournament held in August each year.
