November 2025

Our Club celebrated the Christmas Luncheon with a festive occasion. Members, guests and visitors, (including two from Parkes, and two from Bathurst) were entertained by talented locals - plus Vicki from Bathurst.

The stormy weather caused a blackout for about an hour but no one seemed to notice as the show still went on - by Christmas lights.

Lucky chairs; raffles; A Trivia Queen and friendly atmosphere was a wonderful way to conclude a very successful year.
