Donated by Rotarian John Higginson, two half lambs were raffled at the weekend's markets as part of the campaign to 'lift the lid on mental health'.
With one full lamb currently valued at roughly $220, each raffle garnered enormous contribution from the gathered crowd.
By the end of the event, the club had raised $812, which will be funneled back into the community through local-based mental health strategies.
The two winners this year were Harry Ross and Margaret Wallace, both from Junee.
They will each take home a half lamb.
