THE Nambucca Valley Evening Branch of the Country Women’s Association (CWA) rolled up their sleeves at the iconic CWA Tea Rooms during this year’s Royal Easter Show, helping serve a jaw-dropping 40,670 scones over the 10-day event.
Affectionately dubbed ‘The Fab 5’ by their CWA colleagues, five dedicated volunteers from the local branch travelled to Sydney and jumped straight into the action, spending two full days dishing out scones topped with generous dollops of jam and cream to thousands of eager showgoers.
Known for drawing massive crowds, the CWA Tea Rooms are a beloved tradition at the Easter Show, with all proceeds supporting the CWA’s charitable efforts across New South Wales.
This year’s turnout was no exception, and the local volunteers said the experience was one they won’t forget.
“It was such a wonderful time, fast-paced, fun, and full of community spirit,” the CWA Nambucca Valley Evening Branch’s June Rossington told News Of The Area.
“There’s nothing quite like seeing that many smiling faces over a simple scone and cup of tea.
“The Nambucca Valley Evening Branch is proud to have played a part in the Tea Rooms’ success and looks forward to returning for more jam-and-cream action in the years ahead.”
