A Proud Pink Stumps Showing In Bowen Raises $6,500 So Far

The Bowen Cricket Pink Stumps Ladies’ Day event hosted over 350 women at the Bowen Sporting Complex last Saturday in its annual fundraiser for the McGrath Foundation Breast Cancer Awareness campaign.

The event is one of Bowen’s largest social outings of the year, as well as one of the country’s most successful Pink Stumps Day fundraisers – it has tallied close to $50,000 since beginning in 2015 and was the fifth largest McGrath Fundraiser nationwide last year.

The current tally for this year’s event - prior to sponsorship funding’s addition- is $6,500, with the final number to be calculated in coming weeks.
