Party Time for Maroons Fans

THE only unhappy people who left St Peter’s Church Hall, Caboolture on May 6 were those dressed in blue.

Those with their faces painted maroon, waving balloons, streamers and dressed in their rugby league jerseys, were jubilant because Queensland trounced NSW 34-16 in the first State of Origin match.

More than 25 people aged 12-18 from St Peter’s got together for a lively State of Origin party, which celebrated the huge win by the Maroons.

The church hall proved to be an excellent venue, with a pool table on hand and a big television set

for the game.

One of the youth group co-ordinators, Glenn Burton, said they cooked up an interesting concoction of food for the match.

“We made cheerios and threw some blue food colouring in,” he said. “They didn’t turn out as blue as we had hoped.”

They also feasted on chips, soft drink and red and blue cordial in the hall which was decorated with red and blue balloons and streamers.

The next day, the Queensland win was still showing on the faces of 15 young people who travelled to Caloundra for a day at the beach.

The weather was perfect and Glenn said it was a really great day.

“We got to the beach about 11am and stayed until 4pm,” he said. “Everyone swam and we played footy and soccer.”

It was a fitting end to a fun-filled long weekend.
