FLASHBACK: Shaz Birkett, Jasmynne McEfmer, Chantal Harth, Angela Stevenson, Karen Barnett and Delwyn Birkett celebrated their day at the races with a High Tea in 2015 … it proved so popular that the Burrandowan Picnic Races High Tea is back again for this year, too<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

May 2, 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two innovations introduced at last year’s Burrandowan Picnic Races – a High Tea and Gourmet Luncheon Hampers – will be getting another run at this year’s race meeting on Saturday, May 14.<\/p>\n

The High Tea – held in the race club’s historic hall – will be served at 3:00pm, while pre-ordered hampers will be ready for racegoers to pick up and enjoy trackside when they arrive.<\/p>\n

Burrandowan Race Club secretary Carolyn Stone said both the High Tea and hampers were both very popular in 2015, giving patrons something a little bit upmarket on race day in a traditional bush setting.<\/p>\n

“We wanted to offer something for groups of friends to enjoy together,” Mrs Stone said.<\/p>\n

“So we created the High Tea featuring our favourite china, some welcome bubbles, and delicious sweet and savoury treats.”<\/p>\n

Mrs Stone said the gourmet luncheon hampers were for those who find their days busier and would love to sit and enjoy a picnic style lunch without having to do all the preparation.<\/p>\n

“We make it easy – you just pick up your hampers, complete with cutlery, and enjoy it with friends trackside!”<\/p>\n

However, both the High Tea and Hampers need to be booked before race day.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Seats at the High Tea are $25 per person and can be booked by email<\/b><\/a>. Hampers are $45 for 2 people or $85 for a 4 person hamper, and can also be ordered by email<\/b><\/a>.<\/p>\n

All details are also available on the Race Club’s website.<\/p>\n

Mrs Stone said the Burrandowan Picnic Races are renowned for renewing old and creating new friendships, and the two features simply added to the atmosphere.<\/p>\n

“We will also have our fabulous local service clubs providing great hamburgers and chips, manning our bar and assisting in all sorts of ways on the grounds.<\/p>\n

“Our voluntary committee is also in full swing right now, preparing the grounds and ensuring everything looks fabulous on the day.”<\/p>\n

Mrs Stone said all the usual attractions – Fashions Of The Field, the 5 race program, clay target shooting and the evening pit fired barbecues will be available.<\/p>\n

“We have Kerry Kennedy and Double Barrel playing into the night, and the Kingaroy State High School Band will entertain after the last race.”<\/p>\n

A shuttle bus will be running from Kingaroy on race day, and guests are welcome to bring their own swag and sleep the night at the race track at no charge.<\/p>\n
