At the 33rd Annual General Meeting, Horsham Sports and Community Club President, Dan Smith and General Manager, Glenn Carroll announced that the successful recipient of the Major Community Project Sponsorship of $50,000 are Christian Emergency Food Centre (CEFC) for the purchase of a commercial van to transport food to those in need.
In their application for the sponsorship CEFC mentioned “Some of these vehicles are limited and not very suitable for the task. The CEFC would like to purchase a commercial van that volunteers can use for these food collections. This will allow for easier collection of donated and purchased goods. The transport of these goods will also be safer. Because of restraints with space, some of our non-perishable foods need to be stored off-site. A vehicle will assist us to transport these goods from storage to the Food Centre as required.”
HSCC President Dan Smith, “The Club is so proud to support its community in many ways and we thank the 639 members who participated by voting for their favourite project. Both projects, the Lake Marma Innovative Water Playground and Christian Emergency Food Centre Vehicle, were very well supported and extremely worthy. Congratulations to the CEFC on receiving the most votes and securing the $50,000, we know the vehicle will make life so much easier for the volunteers at the CEFC”
CEFC Client Assessment Manager, Bev Miatke shared her gratitude by expressing the following
” Thank you so much to the Horsham Sports & Community Club for their generous sponsorship to purchase a van for the Food Centre. It means so much to the volunteers here who would normally use their own vehicles to pick up food from our generous community partners all around Horsham. Volunteers pick up food daily from supermarkets and bakeries and ferry purchased and stored goods to and from the centre. A van will streamline this process considerably. Thank you also to everyone who voted for our project – it means so much to have your support!”
Horsham Sports and Community Club would like to say thank you to everyone who partook in the voting process. We look forward to seeing the amazing work CEFC does for the community, and we are proud to be able to assist them in the purchasing of a commercial van to transport food to those in need.

Laverton woman thanks ‘manifestation magic’ for Keno win
A Laverton woman shared she was left thanking the universe after she scored a $60,000 Keno Classic 8 Spot prize at Club Laverton in the weeks leading up to last Christmas.
“It was a big surprise! Especially coming up to Christmas, it’s perfect!” she cheered.
“Do you want to hear something really funny? I just wrote in my diary the day before winning, ‘Thank you, universe, for my Keno 8 Spot win’. Then it really came true!
“I’m a firm believer in the law of attraction and manifestation, and I love affirmations!
“It was awesome seeing all eight numbers pop up on the screen.
“I’ve had a few wins in Keno over the years. It’s like the stars align for me when I play - it’s my thing!”
Club Laverton manager Gus Alimovski said the team happily shared in the excitement with their major Keno winner.
“What an incredible win for our patron! It’s always great hearing these winning stories, and now we have another one to share with our patrons,” he said.
“We’re thrilled for our customer, and we hope to see more Keno winners in our venue soon.”
All eyes on a winning FY26
Keno’s National Partner Manager Luke Harrison said he couldn’t wait to see which Victorian clubs welcomed the next big Keno winners.
“Last financial year, players at Victorian clubs celebrated some impressive victories,” he said.
“A key highlight has been the growing popularity of Keno’s Bonus and Replay features among club patrons. This trend reflects how venues are successfully connecting with their customers, sharing updates on jackpot increases, promotional offers, and game enhancements.
“When players opt into Keno Bonus, they unlock the chance to multiply their winnings by up to ten times, while the Replay option adds another layer of excitement.
“Many players are still unaware of these features, making it vital for staff to start conversations and educate them on the full range of Keno possibilities!”
Mr Harrison said the solid Keno performance at Victorian clubs last financial year laid a strong foundation for continued success in FY26.
“Clubs across Victoria are embracing fresh approaches to elevate the customer experience, and Keno’s rising popularity is playing a key role in that journey,” he said.
“There’s also a wide array of Keno resources available to clubs, from eye-catching point-of-sale materials to engaging promotions, all designed to keep the game front and centre.
“As the new financial year unfolds, Keno is looking forward to celebrating more big wins for Victorian club patrons, and more success stories for the clubs that host them.”
