March 2025 Celebrating St Patrick's Day

Our March meeting was well attended, and we were pleased to welcome several guests; however we did miss those members who are on the Sick List - get well soon ladies.

This day was all about celebrating St.Patrick’s Day so some attendees wore  A Touch of Green and several members spoke of Ireland and different aspects of that country. An interesting fact is that although St.Patrick is the patron saint of Ireland, he wasn’t Irish!

Special wishes to Marie L on a milestone birthday.

June 2024

June Winter Warmer Month- was a very enjoyable and interesting get-together for the 33 Members who braved the winter weather.  Many Members arrived early and there was much chatter as friends caught up with each other, and then a tasty meal was served.

The Guest Speaker was Member Pat who spoke about her visit to Maralinga after which Bev moved a vote of thanks.

Celebrating 35th Birthday in May 2024

The birthday luncheon on 21st May was well attended although several members were unable to join as COVID is still amongst us. However, our friends from Taree and Myall River VIEW Clubs travelled to be with us as did Councillors Dianne and Desley T.

As can be seen in the accompanying photo our three new members cut the cake.

The VIEW philosophy of fostering friendships while educating women was celebrated at the meeting. Thanks to the hard working committee.
