Short Words by bob ant 18th Jan

Normally at this time of year we are going slow with business and there is some time to catch our breath but not 2016, it has arrived at a cracking pace. Lots of rain and heat straight after has left little energy at the end of the day.

Australia Day will be here in a minute and we are still selling tickets to the Duck Race. If you need a book or you have some time to sell tickets contact Michael or me. This will be a great time and our main fundraiser for ShelterBox.

This Sunday is our January Market which should be busy. All hands on deck please to help make life easier and fun for all. See you there, Roster is circulating.

On a sad note Lillian Hardie wife of former member and friend Bill Hardie has passed away. They were both active in the club when I joined and Bill was president 2003-4.  They moved to Tenterfield a few years ago. Our thoughts go out to Bill.

For our friends and members who have started the year with a touch of sadness , let us know if we can help in any way.

Radar has had a great holiday spending time assisting  Orit and family. He will speak at the Australia Day ceremony on what Australia is like from his perspective.

I haven’t organised a BBQ get together as we are about to be full on. Markets this Sunday, Australia Duck Race on Tuesday and then our Youth night and first meeting back on Thursday followed by Michael’s afternoon tea fundraiser for Charmaine’s Cambodia Trip and much more .

Have a great day, and see you on Sunday

Cheers

Bob
