SECRETARY MANAGER’S REPORT 2

Hello Members,

The INXS Tribute Show is returning to

Penshurst RSL on the 28th February,

commencing at 8.30pm. This time they

have joined forces with The Cold Chisel

Show to treat everyone with some of

Australia’s most iconic rock music. For

just $10, you will be guaranteed a great

night of entertainment from these two

popular Tribute bands. Please note this

is strictly an 18+ only event.

Don’t forget our Membership Badge

Draw which now runs every Monday

&Tuesday night from 6pm, definitely

worth dropping in for your chance to

win. This year we have also included a

2nd chance draw to the amount of

$100, which will be drawn on the nights

that the Jackpot doesn’t go off.

Additional to the Badge Draw, our

Monday and Tuesday nights offer

plenty of value to our members as we

run Happy Hours from 5pm to 7pm on

both evenings.

Another fun event at Penshurst RSL is

our fortnightly Karaoke nights. This

month will be on Saturday 7th and 21st

February from 8pm.

It’s almost time for our Footy Tipping

Competition to start up again. In order

to be a part of this competition you

must register so please see our

Reception team prior to the

commencement of the 2015 season.

The first NRL tipping selections must be

in by 6pm on Thursday the 5th March

2015.

I would like to advise members of two

staff members that have recently been

rewarded in line with our staff

incentive scheme. Georgie O’Neill has

worked tirelessly over the past few

months & has done a tremendous job

in building the Club’s new website and I

would encourage all members to check

it out at www.penshurstrsl.com.au. I

also received feedback from a member

in regards to outstanding customer

service performed by Phill Horton who

works on reception.

The 2015 Annual General Meeting will

take place in the Club’s Auditorium at

10:00am on Sunday 22nd March, all

members are welcome to attend this

event.

It was sad to hear the passing of

Margaret Smith (former Secretary

Manager) losing her battle with cancer.

Our wishes are with her Sister Julia

through this tough time.

On a final note, the Club financials are

currently being audited and I look

forward to publishing the 2014 result

to all of our Members very soon.

Happy New Year to all Members!

Regards,

Chris Hendley

THE PENSHURST RSL YOUTH SWIM CLUB After a really busy December & a month off over the

summer school holidays, Swim Club resumed this week

with 105 members. It’s great to see most of our

swimmers are preparing to enter their primary & high

school swimming carnivals, we wish them all the very

best of luck & can’t wait to hear how they went.

REPRESENTATIVE SWIMMING We were all very proud that the Penshurst RSL Swim Club had 41 of its members qualify for the 2014 Zone Championships in December. We won 13 Gold, 12 Silver and 12 Bronze medals. A whopping 21 of our swimmers qualified for the NSW RSL STATE SWIMMING CHAMPIONSHIPS which are to be held in DUBBO in March. We wish our State Swimmers all the very best & can’t wait to see what March 14 brings. Only two more weeks of enrolments before our membership closes for the season. Our Stroke Development class has some vacancies as does our water awareness/learn-to-swim programme for children aged 4 and over. Call/email for more info.

TRAVEL CLUB By the time you read this, we will have been on our first day tour for 2015: the fully-booked Sydney Har-bour ‘Fun Boat’ Cruise on 29 Janu-ary, and it is hoped to write a para-graph about this in the Club’s March Newsletter. Our organiser, Elizabeth, likes to start the year off with a boat trip and in recent times we’ve enjoyed days on the Hawkesbury, Georges and Port Hacking Rivers.

Our first long trip in 2015 is in March and this is fully booked. However, two extended tours have just been added to this year’s pro-gram: Christmas in July on 18/19 July, spending the weekend at Port

Stephens. The second is a four-day mid-week tour to Rydal in Septem-ber for their annual Daffodils Festi-val, staying for the three nights in Oberon and visiting other attrac-tions in the area. The itinerary for this tour is now available and it will open for bookings at our February meeting. Christmas in July should open the following month.

We are eager to have more people join us for the 19-day New Zealand tour of both islands from 7 – 25 November which is now booking. It requires a $200 deposit per per-son and the balance may be paid off until the final payment date of 5 August. The basic itinerary is

now on our website:

http://pentravelclub.weebly.com.

If you would like to become a member of the travel club, our next monthly meetings are Wednesdays 4 February and 4 March, starting at 6.45 pm in the auditorium. An annual member-ship fee of $6 will cover you for the period 1/7/2014 until 30/6/2015, but you must be a member of Pen-shurst RSL Club to join. If you would like to contact us in the meantime, please e-mail [email protected] or phone 9533 5809 (please leave a message if necessary).
