At the time of writing there is a real energy in the Club as we have considerable opportunities ahead for Members to participate in. Maybe it's the change of seasons as we leave Winter behind us.
The launch of Audrey Mutton's book coupled with three Green Geckos telling their heartfelt stories on the 6th of September was truly inspirational.
Alas the guest of honour could not make it due to a recent accident yet as Bronwyn Maddock said the show must go on and so it did. All proceeds from the book to be generously donated to the Green Gecko cause.
Next up on the 20th September Elle Paton will be talk about the huge growth in Tiny Houses. For those seeking affordable living this is a must see.
On the 4th October we have Dermot Avon from Men's Shed Port Melbourne. Please come along to suport the speakers as we appreciate the time their giving.
