PRESIDENT’S PEN
Hi to all returned, service and general members. Well, we are half way through the year al-
ready and we are seeing some great things happening around the club.
AGM
A very big thank you to everyone who attended the 89th Annual General Meeting of the
Taradale RSA on Sunday 28th June at 10am. What we took from this meeting is that we are in
a great position as a club and are still heading in the right direction. Congratulations to our
outgoing committee on their fantastic efforts over the last 12 months and congratulations to
that same committee who will be taking us through the next 12 months as our centenary
committee.
QUIZ NIGHTS
Our monthly quiz nights are back up and running! These occur on the second Wednesday of
every month and are $5 per person. This is a great way of supporting the club as well as hav-
ing a great fun night out with friends and family. We look forward to seeing you down here
for a drink and dinner, with a 7pm start to the quiz.
100 YEAR ANNIVERSARY
We are extremely excited for our centenary year and the celebrations and time of remem-
brance that it brings. So many people have helped our club over 100 years and we are so
grateful for all of them, past and present. This 100 year anniversary weekend will be taking
place from Friday 4th September through until Sunday 6th September inclusive. Please save
the date as we would love to see you all there.
The club is looking great and the atmosphere is fantastic. Have a wonderful month and I
look forward to seeing you down here for a catch up very soon.
Lest we forget,
Brayden Coldicutt
President
Managers Monthly Memo
“Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.” ― Albert Ein-stein. This is exactly what our amazing club will do, we will keep moving forward. It has been such an incredible past year, we have achieved so much. Thank you for all the kind words at the AGM. We have so much to look forward to in the back end of the year. We have an exciting new kitchen team, 100 year Centenary, club prize giving, Melbourne Cup, outdoor area renovations and some daily/weekly promotions. After all of our hard work, we are in a position to open doors to the community and become the hub we once were.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the President, Committee members, volun-teers and staff for your continued support. Without you all we couldn’t have moved for-ward like we have. Here is a small list of accomplishments:
New branding
New club cards
New gaming lounge
6x new machines
New jackpot system
The TAB is back
LED lighting throughout the club
Renovated bathrooms
Interior paint
Exterior paint
New pylon sign
Foyer wallpaper wrap
Sanded and sealed dance floor
Renovated Bar
Wheel of fortune
Upgraded security system
fire alarms upgrade
Bathroom upgrades
That doesn’t scratch the surface of what our Club has achieved in the past 12 months. There is more to come. Watch this space.
We are very excited to have the kitchen back in-house. Welcome to Jen and Aaron, our new cooks, they will continue to provide a fabulous variety of quality culinary options.
Let’s keep moving forward, the future is bright for our special club.
Regards,
Ben Allen
General Manager
Patrons Pencil Welcome everyone, gosh it's hard to believe that we are now half way through the year. What a year it has been, very challenging to say the least. One thing about it we managed to get our club refurbished during lockdown 3, and look how amazing it is. Must congratulate Ben & Sharon for the wonderful talking point the foyer has with old photos taken during events that have been held of many years, it sure has made the foyer sparkling and talkative. Our AGM, held last Sunday, great too see so many members attend, congratu-lations to Ben, Brayden, Sharon & the Executive Committee for all the hard work that has been put into the club to make it happen for us to come along and enjoy. All the best to the Executive Committee who have taken on the challenge again for 2020-2021, it goes to show we have good team spirit in our RSA. Our first entertainment night is Saturday 4th July, come along, socialize, dance, drink, have a meal, lets keep RSA alive and active. All the best to the new kitchen staff, I am sure we will see great meals and menus being presented... Take care, stay safe and warm see you at the Taradale RSA.

HISTORY (Cont’d) COURTESY OF ETHEL KEARNS
September 1993. A Memorial Wall was erected on the front outside wall,
commemorating the three services, badges cast in bronze. A Committee
room and new office was also part of this stage. 1996 saw the back of the
building being extended with a sub-section kitchen library, toilets and large
storage area. A larger bar and gaming room were also added and work
completed by 1997. 1996 Property adjoining the clubrooms was pur-
chased for future planning. Two more properties were purchased in 1999 &
2001 as they came on the market, and these are being rented out until
such time as they are required for future development.
If you have any snippets of history to share, please either drop it in to the office or email [email protected]
