The Wonderful Wood Days Calendar
The Old Time Wood Days have been raising funds for CIKA and The RCH for almost twenty four years. In this time over $314,000 has been donated to CIKA.
The organisers of the Wood Days, Christine and Andrew Duyvestyn, have developed many, many friendships over the years and through their cousin Sam Toranto (an avid CIKA supporter through the family business Toranto Farms) a meeting was arranged with Daniel Burke who has worked in the printing industry for many years. Daniel was very keen to put together a calendar that celebrated the Wood Days.
Since 2007 Daniel has organised this annual fund-raiser. He is supplied with photographs from the current Wood Days and from there he organises the printer, the designer, the paper and the binding, all of which are donated.
The sale of two thousand calendars is undertaken by an army of volunteers, throughout Victoria and interstate.
We are very appreciative of the support given by Daniel and his work with this fund-raiser. It is an unique idea and one that has raised $10,000 each year since its inception, thereby adding to the thousands flowing to CIKA from the Wood Days.
Special thanks to the following for the donation of time and goods to the 2019 calendar.
