Club Harrington Chairman Kerry McDonald presenting Kym Stanley from the Harrington & Surrounds Business & Community Association with a donation of $2000 towards the John Gollan Day Fireworks….
Club Harrington has been providing support to our local community for over 60 years.
We pride ourselves on being a responsible corporate citizen who provides support to charitable organisations, sporting groups and other organisations. Club Harrington has also been a significant contributor towards disaster relief campaigns.
The club employs local workers and uses local suppliers as much as possible.
Our Board is unanimous in their view that these contributions foster a spirit of mutual support in our community. As we support the community, so too does our community support our Club.
Your patronage will enable us to continually prosper and experience the kind of business success that makes these contributions possible.
Every year we contribute a substantial amount to the local community. This includes cash, non-cash and complimentary use of the Clubs facilities for organisations to host their fundraising events or community meetings.
