Urunga VIEW Club thanks Club Urunga for year-long support

Club Urunga Manager Troy Gale presents to Urunga VIEW President Merridy Anderson and Treasurer Maureen Cruikshank.

IT WAS all about “thank yous” at a meeting of Club Urunga manager Troy Gale and members of Urunga VIEW (Voice, Interests and Education for Women).

Throughout 2025, Club Urunga supported Urunga VIEW by inviting local and visiting patrons to chip in to various fundraisers.

“In December, Club Urunga had a fabulous Christmas tree which they used to raise funds for the education of Australian disadvantaged children, through Urunga VIEW’s support of the Smith Family,” VIEW spokeswoman Sharon Grainger told News Of The Area.

In February, Mr Gale presented VIEW president Merridy Anderson and treasurer Maureen Cruickshank with a cheque for $1,500.

“A huge ‘thank you’ to Troy Gale, the Manager, and staff of Club Urunga,” Ms Grainger said.

“And to local organisations and people who supported us throughout 2025.”

Mr Gale told NOTA that he was proud to support the work of Urunga VIEW Club and The Smith Family.

“Giving back locally matters to us, and our members love supporting fundraisers that make a real difference for children and families in our community.”

Urunga VIEW welcomes all women, meeting monthly for lunch and raising money all year for The Smith Family.
