The event was held on Saturday, October 5, to celebrate Berry's transformation into a sea of pink this month as part of the McGrath Foundation's Pink Up Your Town.
The initiative sees communities come together to 'pink up', raise funds for McGrath breast cancer nurses and create a visual show of support for local families experiencing breast cancer.
Winner of the Toppy Bowden Memorial Barefoot Bowls event was 'Team Barry', who won a trophy and $150 in prize money, kindly donated by Berry Smash Repairs.
Berry Smash Repairs owner, Garry Young, got in the pink for the event, dying his moustache pink to raise extra funds.
The team generously donated the prize money straight back to Pink Up Berry 2019.
The wheelbarrow of goodies raffle was won by Genelle Saunders, who kindly donated it back to redraw. Maya McGrath was the lucky winner.
Best Dressed in PINK was judged by Holly Masters, CEO of the McGrath Foundation.
The winning man was John Martin, winning woman Eileen Shield, winning boy Campbell Cox and winning girl Molly Smith.
Runners up were Ebony Smith and Milla Joyce.
