About 70 women, many wearing fancy headwear, celebrated the 94th anniversary of the Henley branch of Rural Women New Zealand.

The celebration also observed the centenary of the national body and the work of rural women in their rural communities. Shawn McAvinue photographed some of the women adorning headwear at Mosgiel Presbyterian Church last week.
