Congratulations Camperdown! A Day To Remember
As there are not many TSC affected families in the Western District of Victoria, Lily Kerr & family decided to use the Annual TSC Picnic Day as a fundraising opportunity, to raise much-needed funds for the Genetic Diagnostic Laboratory recently opened by SEALS, in association with The Sydney Children's Hospital at Randwick. The Picnic day, held on Sunday November 25, 2007 at the Camperdown Racecourse (Victoria), was a huge success, attended by around 400 people who brought along their picnic lunch and enjoyed an afternoon of music provided by local talent. A jumping castle, merry-go-round, train rides and face painting kept the children entertained and the jolly old man in red also took some time out of his busy schedule to pay a visit! |
