Hi Everyone , wow ! Here’s our Fifth Edition of Committee Chatter for the year , the year is flying by .😊A bit of a long one this time round so make yourself a coffee !😆
A meeting was held last Tuesday with a good attendance .Lots of ideas and general business were discussed .
A record number of tickets were sold last Friday night , just over 1500 , what an achievement .
Member numbers stand at 79 and I am sure there are ones that are still thinking about it ? So if you haven’t already done so , join up , but your past member numbers may not be available as memberships were due a couple months ago .
The last meeting an idea of donating $200 every 4 th Friday of the Month was put to the committee , this was voted on and passed . A group , worthy cause or charity .etc .will be the recipient . If you have any ideas of who deserves the $200 , please put in writing of who it is , what they intend to do with the money , point of contact and give it to a committee member , an organisation will be drawn out of a hat and they will be the lucky group / charity to receive this money . The group / charity must be local as the club would like the money to stay local , so get your thinking caps on peeps and we look forward to donating this money every 4 th Friday of the month .
The first $ 200 will be given out on Friday the 29 th of May . The lucky recipient is to be the Walnut Shop of Millicent , a pre loved clothing store. It is run and owned by Wilmur who donates all her time, and profits go to the Prostate Cancer Foundation .
For ones who went to the Trots , the leftover funds from our group betting is still sitting idol , if you have any ideas of what you would like to do with the funds .eg . put on jackpotted xlotto , wait for Melbourne cup and put on then .etc . Please see Chris so we have some idea what you would like done with the money .A tentative date has been suggested for a ‘ Xmas in July ‘ / Quiz night , the 18 th of July .Plans are underway so stay tuned as well as listen to announcements made at Friday night draws .
Members please put your thinking caps on for activities the club can take you on , a couple were thrown around Tuesday night , going to the Sir Robert Helpmann theatre for a show , an afternoon at the movies followed by Tea , a games day in the Mount followed by tea . These are just a few !
Well that’s it from me , stay warm and see you all Friday night 😊
