Harvey's little library filled as close to 100 people pack in to take part in the Biggest Morning Tea
The crowds came together in the Harvey War Memorial Library to take part in the Biggest Morning Tea in a bid to raise money for the Cancer Council WA.
With music performed by the Harvey Ukulele Group Strummers, platters of food and an auction to win major awards were on offer.
Shire president Michelle Campbell said it was outstanding to have so many come people together to raise money for cancer research.
'This is a fabulous cause,' she said.
'We've been on many journeys with our family members dealing with cancer, and I'm sure there's lots in the room that have known someone, or have personally been on that journey with cancer as well.'
Cr Campbell thanked the community for turning up in force, and bringing several platters of food for everyone to share.
'Everybody has contributed so much today,' she said.
After enjoying the spread of food, the community took part in an auction hosted by Harvey shire councillor and auctioneer Tiny Holly.
Library special projects manager Ruth Campbell-Hicks said there was more than $2000 worth of items on action all of which had been donated from local business and community members.
'I've got a great big, long list of people, which I won't go through, but suffice it to say, just about every business in town has given us something which is really amazing,' she said.

Cate Campbell announces engagement on Instagram Credit: Cate Campbell / Instagram 'Last Saturday while watching the sun rise at our new local beach, Adam turned and said: 'Cate, I have a question for you.' 'I thought maybe he was going to ask what kind of plants to put in our gardens, what kind of dog we should get, or what we should make for dinner. 'Instead, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Of course, I said 'yes'…(and cried a lot).'Simply the perfect way to start the next chapter of our lives.' The couple have been together for some time now, with the current world record holder for the short course 100m freestyle saying that her notability had nothing to do with the relationship beginning. 'He didn't know who I was and he maintains he never Googled me – he wasn't star-struck!,' Campbell told the Sydney Morning Herald in 2023. Like most relationships, theirs experienced a bump in the road, with the couple splitting when Campbell moved away to further pursue in career in the pool which she referred to as her 'biggest heartbreak'. After reconciling when the eight-time Olympic medallist moved back to Brisbane the pair have gone the distance, with Kerr popping the question last week. Her announcement post has been flooded with comments from notable athletes sending love to the newly engaged couple. 'Congratulations!!! This is so beautiful, so happy for you both ❤️❤️,' fellow gold medallist Shayna Jack said. Campbell's gold medal teammate from the Rio Olympics Emma McKeon sent love saying, 'Congratulations ❤️❤️❤️'. Australian Olympic royalty Ariana Titmus commented that it was, 'The best news ❤️'. While the Australian Olympics Instagram page showed love with '💚💛💚💛'.

Aussie Olympic hero announces ‘surprise' engagement
Four-time Olympic gold medallist Cate Campbell has announced her engagement to longtime partner Adam Kerr. The 33-year-old took to Instagram on Sunday night to break the news, describing the proposal as a 'complete and wonderful surprise'. 'Last Saturday while watching the sun rise at our new local beach, Adam turned and said: 'Cate, I have a question for you.' I thought maybe he was going to ask what kind of plants to put in our gardens, what kind of dog we should get, or what we should make for dinner. Instead, he got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. Of course, I said 'yes'…(and cried a lot),' she wrote. 'Simply the perfect way to start the next chapter of our lives.' Fellow swimming champions Shayna Jack, Emma McKeon and Giaan Rooney were among those quick to pay tribute. Campbell told the Sydney Morning Herald in 2023 Kerr didn't know who she was when they met five years previously. The pair split when she moved to Sydney for her swimming career, but reconnected when she returned to Brisbane, the city her family settled in after moving from her native Malawi in 2001. 'He didn't know who I was and he maintains he never Googled me – he wasn't star struck, she said. 'We reconnected when I moved back to Brisbane and have been together ever since. He knows what sport means to me.' Campbell, who with sister Bronte in 2012 became the first Australian siblings on an Olympic team in four decades, represented Australia at four Games, winning gold at three. She was part of three consecutive 4x100m freestyle wins in London, Rio de Janeiro and Tokyo, and was also a member of Australia's gold medal-winning medley relay team at the delayed Games in Japan in 2021. A former 100m freestyle world record holder, Campbell still holds the short-course mark set at the Australian championships in 2017.
