Bunnings sausage sizzle

We have decided to try an extra sausage sizzle at Bunnings on a Friday. The day is not so busy and takings won’t be as much as on Saturday. Julie and Michael Love have again generously offered to organise this. Some helpers will be needed- if you have a  couple of hours let us know.  The date is  Friday October 20th

 

Open day for Seniors’ festival – Saturday 21st October

The club will hold an open day/come and try opportunity from 1-30-4 PM. Put the date in your diary and come and help us have a fun session with the intent of attracting some new members. We are offering afternoon tea and a casual round of croquet. If you know anyone who would like to have a try- spread the word!

Volunteers to assist can sign up at the club or email us.
