The event, set against the backdrop of one of the country's most picturesque golf courses, was a perfect day filled with fun, raffles, auctions, golf, and a wonderful display of community.
Thanks to the generosity and participation of all involved, almost $3500 was raised to support new mums and their babies.
Midwife Margaret Binskin said she was over the moon with the outcome.
"It was a great community day, filled with laughter and a lot of fun, and delivering a wonderful donation that will go towards much-needed equipment for the Maternity Unit," Ms Binskin said.
"A special round of applause goes to Crescent Head Country Club Secretary Manager Colan Ryan and his team, including Renee McClintock, for their dedication and effort in organising this successful day.
"Their commitment to creating a community event that brings everyone together in support of others is truly commendable.
"We are thrilled with the support shown by our community. The funds raised will make a difference in the lives of the families we serve."
