An excellent night was had by all at Anchors Wharf for our presentation night last Saturday. Many thanks to Anchors for their fine venue and service. Thanks also to all who helped make the night a success, Lee Bulanyi and her skills excelled again in creating an Olympic theme, Brad Shiels for MC at late notice, good job. Thanks to Mayor Mark Troy and wife and Patron Gordon Braithwate for attending and sharing their kind words. Congrats to all award recipients, too many to mention, but all deserving accolades for another great season for our club. We’ll all enjoy a break until September holidays, where we will look forward to keeping our pristine beaches safe once again.
