Dates to Remember
WELCOME BACK
Wishing all our Club members, their families, friends, and loved ones a happy and prosperous 2025. I‘d guess we’ve all felt that it seems just yesterday we were gearing up for Y2K – and now that was a quarter of a century ago.
BOOK FAIR DONATIONS
Donations are being welcomed for our 2025 Big Book Fair. The Fair is our big fund-raiser for the year and wouldn’t it be fantastic to beat last year’s record takings!! A reminder that we are delighted to accept clean, resaleable books, comics, CDs, DVDs, audio books, jigsaws, and games. We cannot accept encyclopedias, Readers Digest condensed books, magazines, First Aid manuals, cassette tapes, video tapes, vinyl records, computer software and computer games and dirty, tatty, incomplete books. Donations can be left at the Club between 9.30 am and 3.30 pm Monday to Friday.
Memoir Writing Group
Have you ever thought of writing your memoir or stories from your life experiences? For your family, your friends, or even just for yourself?
Come along to a Memoir Writing Group on Tuesday afternoons, 1.00pm in the Anne Murray Room, starting on 21st January 2025. Looking forward to seeing you. Any queries can be directed to Katherine McCarthy, 0400 456 841.
Book Club
Do you like to read? Our Book Club will meet on the last Friday of each month, 2.00pm in the Anne Murray Room. The first meeting will be Friday 31st January. Again, any queries to Katherine McCarthy, 0400 456 841.
Many thanks to Katherine for leading these two initiatives.
