Greetings and
salutations and thanks to those who wished us well and said we were doing a
great job!
This is to catch
you up on the plans so far and to advise you of details of both functions and
payment arrangements.
SATURDAY, 1st
February 2014
Venue; Mosman RSL
Club.
719 Military Rd,
MOSMAN NSW 2088
(02) 9960 2888
Parking: There is some undercover parking
available. Enter via Gouldsbury St.
We suggest you
arrive at the club between 6:30 and 7:00pm and make yourself known to Jan or
Helen at the Registration Table. We have
decided to eliminate the previously mentioned “Complimentary drink” and suggest
you make your way to the bar and organize a drink for yourself. Platters of canapés will be served from 6:30pm.
Introduce
yourself and play the perennial reunion game of “I would have recognized you
anywhere” or the “I would never have recognized you” version of the same
game. Dawn will be on “meet and greet”
duty and will be able to answer your questions.
There will be a
memorabilia display and if you have any interesting pieces we would be happy to
display these also. Please make sure
they are named and while all care will be taken we can‘t be responsible for the
safe return of the items.
At 8:00 pm we
would like you to make your way to the dining area and choose your seats. There will be some “housekeeping” and you
will be introduced to our MC, Dave Weeden.
Dinner will begin with an entrée, followed by a main and dessert using
the alternate drop method. After dinner
there will be a short speech from our guest Maurie Saxby, followed by live Skype links.
Tony is planning
a visual display during the evening and is seeking photos. Please forward these directly to Tony: tmikus@hotmail.com in jpeg format.
The evening will
conclude at 11:30pm.
The cost for the
dinner will be $ 85 per person payable before 10 January 2014
Please contact one of the team below for making payment.
SATURDAY, 2nd February 2014
Venue: Middle Head Café,
1110 Middle Head
Rd, MOSMAN NSW 2088
(02) 9960 1239
After a great
night’s sleep you should make your way to ASOPA for breakfast. We have made loose arrangements for breakfast
at the Middle Head Café. This is a
regular café and we are expected to arrive in dribs and drabs from about
9:00am. We do not have an exclusive
booking and they will be catering to their regulars at the same time. You will order from their regular breakfast
men and pay individually. At some time please
make your way to the ASOPA precinct and take a leisurely walk. Further details will be available at the
dinner.
