Although overall fleece numbers were a little down, the Yarrawonga Lions are very appreciative to farmers who continue to support this event even during difficult times.
This year the proceeds of sale of the donated fleeces will be given to Hilltop - Albury Wodonga Patient and Carer Accommodation Centre.
This year Lions catered on the Friday for the horse and dog events for breakfast and lunch and again all-day Saturday at the Wool Pavilion.
