What’s Coming Up?

Community Day

Dapto Seniors had a stall at the recent Community Day held in the Ribbonwood Centre. The stall displayed brochures and pictures of the various activities for members while the Craft Group displayed some of the beautiful items they make when they meet each week. Our ladies made the stall look really interesting to encourage passers by to browse.

The Bus Trip

On the 7th September the monthly bus trip will visit the CareFlight Helicopter Base near Westmead. At only $12 a ticket the bus was quickly filled but it should be a good day out.
Remember no trips in October but TWO in November! Look out for details in October.

Fathers’ Day Concert

Rehearsals have reached fever pinch as the club’s singers and performers get ready to present their ever popular Fathers’ Day Concert on the 14th September  in Heininger Hall. Members and non members are invited to attend for a jolly afternoon’s entertainment. A gold coin donation at the door would be appreciated. The concert starts at 1.30pm but after the concert stay back for tea and coffee and the draw for the many lucky door prizes.

Fathers’ Day Lunch

The Club’s next meeting on 10th September will be the last opportunity for members to purchase tickets to the Fathers’ Day Lunch. The lunch is on the following Thursday, the 17th September at noon  and all members are welcome. A delicious two course meal and a lucky door prize draw (last time everybody won a prize) all for $18 is value that’s hard to beat.

It’s Our AGM

At the next meeting on Thursday, 16th July 2015 Dapto Seniors will hold its Annual General Meeting (AGM). This is the first AGM since January 2014 due to the change of financial year.

The club’s financial position will be explained by our Treasurer, the President will give a report on the year’s activities, finally all committee positions will be declared vacant and the meeting handed over to our Returning Officer who will hold the election of office bearers.

Nominations received for the 2015/2016 year have been posted on the club’s notice board in the foyer. A big thank you to all the people who have put their name forward to serve the club for the following year.

Apart from the AGM the meeting will have all its usual features with reports from the different sub groups, monthly financial information, accounts submitted and general business.

Birthday Lunch

The 53rd Birthday Lunch will be held on 23rd July at Dapto Leagues Club and tickets are on sale at this meeting for a mere $18. These lunches are always great fun and naturally there will be our massive door prize draw.

See you on Thursday.
