Midwinter Feast

Saturday, 26 July, 2008

Over a hundred South Africans packed the Centennial Hall for an evening of fantastic food and good company on 26th July. The Australians even agreed to hold off the rugby until 10pm so we could have our function!  Many new members signed up and we did more than breakeven by adding over $200 to our club funds.

The green and yellow table decorations were done by Priscilla Gage and Ros Marais for the amazing sum of $2.50 each!  Johnnie Baldwin organised the sound system and nostalgic music using his vast collection of vinyls!  The children were hugely entertained by Tom, the Yo-Yo Wizard and a packet of yo-yo’s donated by the Aherns. 

Our raffle was well supported and we thank our donors for their generosity.  Please support them. They were Tony and Tracy Ahern of All About You Beauty chain, Howard Andrews, our famous author, Chris Basson, new owner of Safari Meats, Linda Klok with children’s books, and David and Nicole Stanley of Canterbury Biltong.

TRANSIT LOUNGE TO AUSTRALIA?

Rosanne Hawarden was recently contacted by the media to comment on claims that South Africans led the way in using New Zealand as a "transit lounge to Australia".

Here's the link to the article that started it all.
