LAST Saturday we celebrated the 60th anniversary of the opening of the Euroa Third Age Club on October 16, 1964 and it was a wonderful celebration for those who attended.

Thank you to the ladies who spent Friday afternoon setting the tables and decorating the hall and also those who helped put everything back in order for Monday morning activities.

A huge thank you to Lyn Wellington and her crew who served a delicious two course meal which was enjoyed by all.

After lunch our president Neville Mawson sat with Margaret Walker and asked her for her memories of the building and opening of the club in 1964 – it was very interesting to hear how the money to build the hall was raised.

Margaret was in charge of organising accommodation for those who came back to Euroa at that time.

Well done Margaret and Neville.

The raffle was drawn.

Mark Radford won the quilt made by Coral Saunders, and Gail Healy won the hamper from the chemist.

These may be collected at the club.

During the afternoon, music was provided by Greg Dudley and Jimmy Davidson, which was enjoyed by all.

The November meeting of the club will be held on Thursday, November 28 at 2pm.

All welcome.

The club Christmas lunch will be held at the club on Tuesday, December 10 at 12pm and the cost will be $20 per head.

Please book with Lorraine at the newsagency – bookings close on Monday, December 3.
