Social Report – Sept 2023

Saturday, September 23rd, 2023

Sunday 27th August  saw 36 members enjoy the drive through the hills to Bethany for a gourmet sausage sizzle for lunch.  We had hired the Pavillion and Bill had the fire going, and although it was a beautiful day,most people sat on the lawns and enjoyed the sunshine.

Sunday 17th September was the Observation Run  and we enjoyed a beautiful sunny day.  Dean and Lisa had set a great run through the beachside suburbs and we ended up at Osborne for a Hamburger and Sausage Sizzle lunch. 24 members participated in the day.

It is with great pleasure we announce that Natalie Farrell is taking on the role of Social Secretary for the incoming year. We wish her all the best.

Margie and Bill.

The weekender ran well with 20 Adults and 1 Child attending.  The weather was kind to us for most part.  We had the Girl Guides cater for our two dinners, and they did an excellent job.  Most of us came home with pumpkins from Angelina’s farm, who made the pumpkin soup for Saturday night. The Riverland Wine Centre was excellent, and everyone enjoyed their tasting of the wines.

Sunday’s run to Middleton was great with 24 people enjoying lunch at the Middleton Tavern. Great run set by Rory and Sue.

Next month, on Sunday July 23rd we have decided to have a morning tea run to the Gumeracha Toy Factory.

Bill and I are stepping down as Social Secretaries, so we are hoping someone will put their hand up to take over!  The calendar of events is covered till December, so you would have a head start on upcoming events!
