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, the Club will close early. Please understand if you arrive to find the
Clubrooms closed. If in doubt, please phone.
Christmas Hamper Raffle
If you have any items to
donate for the Christmas Hamper Raffle, now is the time to bring them into the
Club. All donations, big or small, are
appreciated. Tickets are $1 each, and
hopefully there will be lots of prizes.
