JUNE 2008 REPORT

 

 

We have been told the reunion in Fremantle over the ANZAC Day period was a resounding success. We had approximately 140 veterans and 100 wives/partners attend.
The financial side worked out well at the end after getting a few late sponsor donations which enabled us to put on a few extra free meals and nearlly cover the last nights drinks bill.
Congratulations to Peter Price from Victoria who has put his hand up for a reunion in 2 years time - 2010, we hope all the Victorians will get behind him and his committee to host another great union.
We received $4000 from the Canberra reunion and we will hand this much on to the 2010 committee. A jug was passed around on the last night and the total of donations was $850.00 this will go to Victoria also. The remaining funds left over will be distributed between the Adelaide Association and the Victorian committee.
All I can say is a huge thank you to everyone that attended from the Eastern States, we hope you enjoyed yourselves and also the West Australian hospitality all around the state.
These events do not happen without a huge amount of effort from a lot of people and I thank all the WA committee and other West Australian members who supported us all the way through.
We thank you very much. We've made a lot of new friends and we look forward to seeing you all in 2010 somewhere in Victoria.
