TO CELEBRATE one year of business, the owners of Boambee Bay Service Station and General Store are inviting the community to join them for fun and games on Saturday morning, 24 May, from 7:30am-12:30pm.
The former old-style service station was run by the Vignes family for 41 years, before being bought by Adam and Jodi Hudson a year ago.
They began trading as Boambee Bay Service Station and General Store on Monday 27 May.
“We are extremely grateful to all those who have stopped in and supported us over the past 12 months,” the husband-and-wife team told News Of The Area.
“As some people would understand, the first 12 months in business can be tough, so we are very thankful for the community’s support.
“In turn, we have reached out to a few local sporting groups who we now proudly sponsor in some way, as our way of giving back.”
The birthday bash will include a BBQ run by Sawtell Board Riders, Sawtell Panthers RLFC and The Snappers Rugby Union Club, with the money raised to be split between the three.
There will be competitions, Gary from NC Seafood will have his truck there, and there will be lots of fresh local produce to try.
The year has “absolutely flown by” according to the new owners.
“It really has been a year of getting to know our customers and the locals and also the customers getting to know us and what we provide,” Jodi said.
Their focus is Driveway Service, first and foremost.
“We’ve tried to make it somewhere for people to come that is quick, convenient and consistent, always with friendly and helpful service.”
