From the President,
It was with great sadness that we learned of the recent passing of Barry Walker a member since 1991. A memorial service was held on the 21st August at Allen Drew funerals in Castle Hill.
Now that the weather has turned to Spring and the rain period has ceased for the time being we can now look to better days for outings. The recently conducted survey has concluded that our current approach is working but needs to be supplemented with additional activities. Opal card outings, self -drive, coffee club, movies and theatre parties received strong support. In order to plan such additional activities convenors are needed. An extra three at least are required. If you have the interest then please approach a committee member.
Last months speaker was exceptional, my sincere thanks go to Ian Green for making the necessary arrangements.
Our experiment with putt-putt golf due to the weather was not successful, we will try again in the near future with croquet.
Just a reminder our Xmas lunch will be held at the Hills Lodge on Tuesday 2nd December this year. Notice with full details will be forthcoming next month.
Peter Evans
President
