Firstly, a very big thank you to Kirsti for organizing such a successful event at our breakfast meeting last Thursday Morning. I gather that our 63 bags full of essential items far exceeded Sally from Share the Dignity expectations. Sally spoke about the organization which gave us all a greater appreciation of what we were trying to achieve.
Thank you to everyone who has been able to volunteer for our BBQ and Christmas Tree roster which begins this coming Saturday 5th. December.
Our next breakfast meeting is on Thursday 10th December at the Mercure/Grosvenor on North Terrace, which will be our only meeting in December, which will include our AGM. Our guest speaker will be my daughter Rebecca whose subject is Music Therapy in SA. which she is very passionate about.
John W. is busy counting the numbers who plan to attend our Christmas evening at the Riverside Rowing Club on Friday 11th. December, so I hope that you can attend.
This coming Thursday 3rd. December is our regular Coffee Conversation at The White Picket Fence in Dulwich from 9.30 am and everyone is welcome.
For the benefit of members, we will aim to give the Duty Roster a few weeks ahead - see below.
