Horsing around at Big Night Out

15 December 2011

The 2011 Big Night Out was a colourful affair with everyone dressing in their best, or as jockeys and horses, for the night which was themed, At the Races.

The more than 650 people who attended gave the race goers at the Melbourne Cup a run for their money in the dress stakes, with everyone looking fabulous as they walked through the rose-draped white picket fences to enter on the big night.

Food and drink flowed as everyone enjoyed the entertainment, which included Sweethearts and crowd favourite, Trojan.


The room looked fantastic with a horse racing themed stage backdrop and bright and colourful balloons themed to suit the night.


The night’s best dressed got to strut on the catwalk to be in the running for a prize in the best dressed man and woman, best original costume and best look alike categories.


The annual “Money Can’t Buy Auction” had people bidding at a great pace and more than 40 door prizes were won on the night.


Next year’s theme will be the 60s – to celebrate Karingal’s 60th anniversary.
