Lazy Frog is turning 30 this year. 67299Lazy Frog is turning 30 this year. 67299

LAZY Frog is celebrating its 30th birthday this year.
The shop, famous for its range of giftware and homeware, will be holding a special event to mark the milestone, which customers can find more about in store.
Owner Tracey Priest said Lazy Frog was built from the ground up by the original owners, Janet and Geoff Pursell.
“They met great people along the way,” she said.
“In July 2008 my dad Norm and mum Jeanine brought Lazy Frog for me to manage and run.
“Our family have been family friends of the Pursells for many years and I, like many other locals, have grown up with Lazy Frog in Main Street, Pakenham.”
The Priests and the Purcells thank all their customers for their support over the last 30 years.
“It is greatly appreciated – without our customers the shop would not be what it is today,” Tracey said.
Lazy Frog is at 109 Main Street, Pakenham.
