Organised by Lorraine Robertson and hosted by the Wade Hotel, the event raised close to $12,000 for cancer patients in Leeton shire.
With close to 130 people attending, the evening got off to a fun start with a glass of pink bubbles on arrival, followed by delicious homemade sweets and food, raffles, games and entertainment from Mark Smith.
An art auction featuring the work of residents also contributed to the final tally.
"The organising committee is incredibly grateful to the community for their support and to the local shops and businesses for their kind donations and prizes for our raffles," co-organiser Stacey Challacombe said.

This year was the second time the Girls Night In event has been held after Mrs Robertson held the first in 2018 after her cancer-fundraising morning teas were getting too big.
This way, more people can attend and enjoy the festivities, while raising funds for local cancer patients.
