Could you please wear your name badge when attending meetings and outings so that
we all know who’s who in the Zoo – (It helps the new members to learn everyone’s name). Thank you.
$2.00 Starting at our March meeting we are now having a Raffle each month.
The prize is $10.00 cash. The proceeds of the Raffle will be used to buy equipment for the club. May I suggest that when you get hold of a $2 coin you put it where you keep your name badge so that way you will either remember to bring both of them or forget to bring both of them.
Upcoming speakers …
May - Sharon Claydon, MP ~ Member for Newcastle

If any member knows of someone they think our members would be interested to hear from please let a Committee member know so we can try to organise something.
