2011 Qld Floods and more;
The beginning of 2011 has proved quite a challenge for our nation with uncharacteristic weather patterns across the board. Our local wine makers are dealing with a summer that was almost ‘missing in action’ resulting in a vintage still yet to happen for most. Fires in W.A., cyclones in Qld and floods abound along the east coast and Victoria.
Given the recent pounding that Qld has endured Prowine recently staged an impromptu luncheon on Friday 14th January with our staff, with proceeds raised going to the QLD flood relief. A quick hand around of the hat collected $251.00 on the day which was generously matched $ for $ by Steve Peake on behalf of Prowine resulting in $502.00 going direct the appeal. Not bad for a small company and a hand full of staff.
