As a token of our appreciation for your continued
support, this year for our annual birthday celebra-
tion we held a bbq for all of our current members
on a Saturday evening in August. The weather be-
haved and it turned out to be a great dry evening.
We had over 50 members who brought their fami-
lies along with them to join some of our staff in
celebrations. The kids were well entertained with
our bouncy castle and adults got a chance to meet
some of our staff in a social atmosphere. With
Gerry, Dermot and Chris at the grill no one was poi-
soned and the food was served to perfection . Well-
done guys and we hope to have a second in 2011
