Welcome to our new Member – Yvonne
Coleman
Next meeting is Saturday, 10th
November, 2007 at 1 pm
MONTHLY RAFFLE – Tickets are $1 in the monthly raffles. There are always a variety of items to be won
and all monies raised by the raffles are used to buy research resources for the
use of Club Members. (List of new
resources will be included in the Hindsight)
OPENING HOURS - PLEASE NOTE: While we
make every effort to keep the Club open at the rostered times, a shortage of
volunteers means we are unable to provide emergency cover for rostered
volunteers who are unable to attend due to other commitments. Also be aware, that if the rostered duty
persons are the only members in attendance, at approx. 1pm on Mondays and Saturdays,
the Club will close early. Please
understand if you arrive to find the Clubrooms closed. If in doubt, please
phone.
Well, it is that time of
year again, when donations would be gratefully appreciated for use as Christmas
Raffles. As you know we like to have
lots and lots of prizes. If you have
anything that is suitable for the raffle, please leave them in the
Library. Tickets are still $1 each.
