This year, we held our Annual Awards Night in our club rooms and celebrated the 130th anniversary of our first meetings back in 1895. It made for a very festive, entertaining evening. The delicious food (universally acclaimed as the most tender roast ever) was provided by Jason and Dallas Pedretti, catering manager SJoG.
Thanks, also, to our raffle donors:
- Bendigo Camera House
- Glynn Lavender
