Hi all happy feet,

On Saturday 3rd December.

 

We are going to have a Bush Dinner starting at 6:00 pm

Billy tee and coffee. Cost will be $5:00 per plate.

 

The Bush Dance will start at 7:30 pm and run to around 10:00 pm.

 

You don't have to come to both but it would be really handy if you could let me know if you intend to come to the dinner.

 

This will be the last dance for the year.

Whitsunday Fiddle would like to thank you for your terrific support over the year.

I hope you have enjoyed the dances and being part of keeping a good Aussie and Celtic tradition going.

Ratepayers meeting - 6 PM WEDNESDAY 19 OCTOBER at REEF GATEWAY

Hi everyone,

We have received 3 phone calls this morning asking if the Association is meeting tonight, Thursday 29 September at 6 PM. The answer is: NO, not this time.

You may recall two months ago we suggested to meet the last Thursday of each month.

At our recent meeting last month it was decided to change this to the 2nd Thursday.

Then the Committee thought to change the venue time to time in an effort to give more members an opportunity to participate.

 

I take the opportunity to thank my tenants Kevin and Tony of UBER Restaurant for their contribution and efforts.  At the time when all Hotels venues were charging $250 to $450 for renting their conference room, UBER offered WRA their venue free of charge and they came up with a "Pizza and Wine" meal costed at $20 including a donation of $5 to the our  Association. 

On behalf of all members: Thank You Kevin & Tony, we'll be back. 

Reef Gateway Hotel has offered a "Pasta and Wine" deal for $20 including a $5 donation.

As they are booked solid for every Thursday night the Committee has accommodated them

by changing the date to Wednesday.  NOW YOU HAVE THE FULL STORY.

OUR NEXT MEETING IS :  

6 PM  WEDNESDAY 19 OCTOBER  at  REEF GATEWAY

Cheers for now,

Tony
