They have an enormous amount of Christmas items for sale including Santas, reindeers, wreaths, baubles, trees, and lights at their warehouse at 35 Ross St.
They are selling the merchandise to help donate money to the Community Carols Concert, which is on again in Belmore Park on Saturday, December 22.
This year’s event features Timomatic, The Koi Boys, Colin Buchanan, Mariah Keramianakis, Nathaniel Patterson, the F5Choir and Chris King.
Carols organiser Peter Mylonas was at the warehouse recently to thank the Lamarras and also Frank Menduni (from Menduni Garden Artistry) for their generosity in donating items for the sale.
He said it would be his last year of running the Community Carols.
“This is my last year of coordinating the Community Carols Concert. After 27 years, I decided that is enough and it is time for me to move on and give somebody else a go with it,” he said.
“Tony and Adrianna have been instrumental in selling these Christmas decorations and donating the proceeds to the community to help pay for the event. It costs up to $70,000 to put it on, so the help much appreciated.
Mr Mylonas said this year’s Community Carols Concert was shaping up to be a beauty.
“We have some top artists this year. Timomatic is coming back and The Koi Boys as well, who who performed at the Commonwealth Games and were also here last year,” he said.
“We also have Colin Buchanan and talented locals Mariah Keramianakis and Nathaniel Patterson as well as popular emcee Chris King and the F5 Choir.
“The children can enjoy Matilda’s Zoo, horse-drawn carriage rides, fairy floss and sparkling treats as well as a sausage sizzle and drinks.”
The warehouse is open every day from 8.30am to 4pm for people to get their Christmas items and help donate money for a worthy event.
