Christmas Concert

Our Christmas Concert was a great success with nearly 150 people enjoying a fun filled concert. We had people from as far away as Penrith attending. Cheers of “encore” echoed through the hall. Afterwards there was a snack, tea or coffee and the gigantic door prize draw.

During the show a star was born.

The Christmas Lunch

As usual members enjoyed a fantastic Christmas lunch in the Sinclair Room at Dapto Leagues Club. The main course offered a choice of Barramundi or Pork with Pavlova or Trifle for desert. No-one complained!

At the lunch a past President, Vice President and long time member was presented with a Branch Life membership for the years of work she had put into the club, an award she very much deserved.
