WINDERMERE Child and Family Services will receive $500 from a quick raffle held at the final Casey Business Development Group (CBDG) networking breakfast for 2005.
CBDG president Michelle Hext said ticket sales raised $280 and the group would make the amount for Windermere up to $500.
The first prize, a stay at the Cumberland, Marysville, raised $280 for Windermere Child and Family Services.
Ms Hext said the group was extremely pleased with the success of its year and particularly with the energy shown at the final networking breakfast for the year.
Guest speaker Hawthorn Football Club sales and marketing manager Jeremy Kaan created interest at the chicken and champagne breakfast when he foreshadowed a strong presence in the southeast by his club.
Mr Kaan said Hawthorn wanted ownership of football in the eastern corridor.
He said, however, the club would be asking the community what it wanted for football.
Mr Kaan said Hawthorn had established a new base at Waverley Park that was state of the art and was well placed to service football in the area.
