Whanganui s biggest Christmas lunch continues to grow each year, with more than 500 people gathering in the Eulogy Lounge at Wanganui Racecourse for this year s event.
City Mission Whanganui manager Karrie Brown, who has been on deck for the past five Christmas lunches, said it s always a fantastic community get-together and this year it was sold out. Last year was pretty good so I m hoping this year is just as good. They just seem to get better and better. More people know and it s just getting more popular.

Mike Tweed is a multimedia journalist at the Whanganui Chroniclemichael.tweed@nzme.co.nzWhangaChron The annual City Mission Christmas Lunch will once again be held at the Eulogy Lounge at the Whanganui Racecourse this year, and City Mission Whanganui manager Karrie Brown said the tickets had been all but snapped up. It ll be a really lovely menu, but it s simple, so it doesn t take a lot of preparation in the kitchen. In other years we ve done chicken drumsticks, but this year we re going all out and we ve got boneless chicken instead. That s a bit of a treat. It was more expensive to do, but we thought it was worth doing.
