The Grafton Branch held its June monthly meeting Friday 11, with 19 members present and one apology accepted.
Grafton CWA played host to Member for Page MP, Mr Kevin Hogan to announce the government grant to Grafton CWA to upgrade our seventy-year-old Kitchen. Morning tea was served, and our grateful members thanked Mr Hogan for the funding. Hopefully, work will begin soon in time for Jacaranda Morning Tea which CWA members cater for.
