I believe the Kris Kringle meeting was one of excellent, amazing, or fabulous. I thoroughly enjoyed the night. We had just finished our sumptuous meal, when Santa and Elf arrived to distribute presents.
Many thanks to all that contributed to making this a wonderful event. The year has ended on a high. Covid19 impacted on the start of the year, with yet another Changeover via Zoom. The last two months have generated fellowship through Mini-Book Sale, a couple of Bunnings BBQ, several Friendship Dinners, and a car run. It is possible we have held the best ever Tree of Joy event. I am off to David’s tonight to complete another Santa’s Workshop. We start the new year with President's Lunch at Vanilla Cream Café, Amaroo. This event is on Saturday, 22nd January. I appreciate a lot of the Members will travel to see family and kin. However, if you are at home please consider attending. I wish all Members and Partners a wonderful break. I hope you enjoy this break regardless of what you pursue. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Keith |

Our results were:
At this stage we don’t have any dates for future BBQs |
