Ceres Big Freeze 3.0

What an Amazing Big Freeze Event!

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for the Ceres Big Freeze 3.0 on Thursday! 

 

 Despite the chilly conditions, the event was a massive success and our brave staff made a splash (literally) in the icy pool, all whilst raising vital funds and community awareness for a great cause!

The cheers and support of the crowd was truly amazing in the Winter air! 

 

 We couldn't have done it without the amazing community we have, so a massive thanks to all who donated, purchased merchandise, attended the event or spread the word as we raised more than $2,500 for Fight MND. 

Check out the incredible event photos below courtesy of Morgann Jade Photography. To relive the fun moments, share your favourite highlights with us in the comments! 

 

Stay tuned for more exciting events coming up soon!

Once again, thank you for making the Big Freeze an unforgettable day!

-Mr James
