Milestone Anniversary For Country QCWA

Gargett branch of the Queensland Country Women’s Association celebrated their 75th anniversary on 20th November, with a luncheon to commemorate the special occasion that comes once-in-a-lifetime.

A cake cutting ceremony was held, alongside a day of reminiscence and nostalgia as members and their families looked back fondly on the seventy-five years of service that local women have dedicated to the branch.
