The 1935 36 annual meeting records the Woman's Auxiliary report for the Manilla District Hospital. Despite fewer financial members due to renewals, the group continued valuable hospital service and reduced its credit balance from 48 pounds 13 shillings 10 pence to 25 pounds 1 shilling 11 pence.
The document outlines the Auxiliary's year end finances including £25 13s 6d ball money, receipts of £7 7s 0d from subscriptions and £28 153s 4d from entertainments, and £30 for linen purchases. It notes a special wheel for a theatre trolley, income from a lingerie stall, egg and soap days, and a Bridge Party contributing funds. It describes balls raising £85 6s 9d and £74 6s 1d, a street stall, a street stall investment of £2 10s, and rental income. It recognizes Mr Byrnes for his fundraising, Mrs Simpson for attending the Sydney Auxiliaries Conference, and the departure of Patron Mrs Waterhouse. The report expresses thanks to members and supporters and notes use of a Club Room and woodwork effort for a oar. It ends with a local notice from Latening Landseekers and a proclamation by R. H. Hudson about prohibitions on shooting and fence interference at Willamby.
