Wheel Of Fortunes!!!!

Here are some photos of the action in the Jerdacuttup Hall on Saturday 12th October.  There were two performances of the Wheel of Fortunes out at the Jerdacuttup Wheat Bin with audiences dining in shifts back at the (now fabulous, thanks to recent renovations!) Jerdacuttup Hall.

Whilst enjoying a delicious meal catered by the Jerdacuttup Community Association, patrons were entertained by the marvellous Denmark Heartstrings Trio and our own lovely Luz Sidamon, Rose Hill and talented Kier Broughton.

Check out the photos!

Final touches on the verandah.

Cosy couches by the piano.
