The meal, consisting of splendidly cooked beef, hamburgers, chops and sausages by Graeme Chamberlain was accompanied by salads prepared by the ladies. It appeared everyone present enjoyed their meal and the company. Thanks were extended to all those who helped especially Graeme and Sandy Chamberlain.
When the club was buying a new computer we gave the old one to a young lad, Nate Howard, from Wellington who has severe language difficulties and will need extra help when he goes to Geelong High School in the new year.
Rod Bush set the software up for him so he is ready to benefit as much as possible. Our thanks to Rod for his generous gift of time and expertise to help this young lad.
