Our guest speaker this week was Murray Verso who shared his knowledge of the Gallipoli doctors.

We welcomed Alan Hall of Very Special Kids and presented a cheque for $8300, bringing the total to $100,000 over the 12 years VSK have been a beneficiary of our Charity Golf Day.

We also welcomed Ken and Alf from the Hobsons Men’s Shed who have provided volunteers for the Golf Day for a number of years, initially we made a donation to thank them. Once again, they have donated this back increasing the donation to VSK. On a personal note, my (late) father was very involved in the men’s shed and enjoyed his time with them.

Once again, it was great to have Bob Hawkins join us.

On Saturday, we attended the DIK open day and on behalf of International director, Charlie M, long time DIK volunteer, Barry Douglas presented a cheque to sponsor 6 hospital beds.

There are a number of dates for your calendars…
