Over 70 people attended the Forrest Beach Progress Association’s first Hoy of the year on Saturday, 11th of January. Many prizes were given out, but most importantly, it was a great day out, and fun was had by all.
Every game of Hoy resulted in a prize, every fifth game winner won a meat tray.
There were also two raffles and a cent sale, and the money raised helped the Forrest Beach Progress Association treat the community.
Forrest Beach Progress Association President Wayne Squires said the Forrest Beach Progress Association is about getting the community together, and they have more things on the horizon.
“We're all about giving back to the community,” said Wayne.
“There's a lot of hours put in, and there are lots of ideas that are coming in, beautifying the main streets, for example.
“Another project we're going to negotiate with council is fully fencing the playground near the toilets on the beach.”
The Hoy was highly competitive and was catered by the QWCA Forrest Beach.
The first Hoy of the year was well received. Many players exclaimed that the match was highly intense, and all were eager to beat their fellow competitors.
