The charity event had been going for the past 12 years, Gillet said.
Support also came from family members, who worked in the kitchen ensuring everybody got refreshments, Gillet said.
The charity event ''started when the wool prices were really low and it was costing more to shear the sheep than what the wool was worth''.
Money from the event would mostly go towards charity for local youth and the elderly, Gillet said.
''The weather is always the biggest challenge,'' she said, pointing to some of the freshly cut wool that had to be put aside as it was still wet from the recent rains.
