Jockey Hannah Phillips has launched a GoFundMe campaign for Nanango Race Club president Wayne Hancock who recently suffered a devastating fire on his property at Booie.<\/p>\n

Wayne and his wife Francine are both volunteers with the race club.<\/p>\n

On June 12, fire crews were called early in the morning after reports a shed was on fire.<\/p>\n

When they arrived they found a large hayshed well-engulfed in flames.<\/p>\n

Hannah said the the blaze destroyed the couple’s hay harvest as well as farming machinery and implements.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“Insurance will only cover some of the damage,” Hannah wrote on GoFundMe.<\/p>\n

“With many experts predicting a drought starting later this year, a group of race club members are getting together to help replace the hay and hopefully some of the implements to get Wayne and Francine back to drought-readiness.<\/p>\n

“We welcome any donations, big or small, to help two people who have been instrumental in the recent revival and growth of the Nanango Race Club.”<\/p>\n
