About 250 people gathered for a fundraising dinner and auction held in Alexandra on May 25 for this year's Central Otago Winter Feed Competition, which has raised more than $70,000 for the Central Otago community.
Most of the money would be donated to Dunstan Hospital, and other contributions would bemade to the organisations that had organised the event, the Poolburn and Omakau schools, and the Omakau-Earnscleugh Collie Club.
Section winners were: Glen Harrex, of St Bathans (swede dryland); Renee Harrex, of St Bathans, (rape dryland), Cameron Nicolson, of Poolburn (irrigated turnip), Michael Fridd, of Ida Valley, on behalf of Claire and the late John Mulholland, (mixed dryland brassica), Mandy Evans, of Poolburn (rape irrigated), and Ralph Milne, of Lauder (mixed brassica irrigated).
