21 Club sports green and gold for Boks
The special Christmas luncheon will be held on Wednesday, 25 November in the Lords and Legends conference room at noon for 12.30pm.
ALTHOUGH the October 21 Club luncheon kicked off with the AGM, it was one of the best attended meetings of the year.
Green and gold balloons on each table created a festive atmosphere which ensured that the Boks were suitably toasted.
Members looked stunning in their rugby gear or green and gold outfits.
With no price increases and the consistently high standard of good food, Lords and Legends was unanimously accepted as the venue for 2016. The existing committee of Gwyn McLeod (president), Lyn Sutherland (vice-president), Jenny Perkins (treasurer) and Golda Smylie (secretary) were re-elected.
Guest speaker was Johann Brits of Fouriesburg Country Tours. Clive and Marie Craig founded the business and they have recently handed the reins over to son Johann who has been with the company for seven years. He is an accredited tour guide (hosting most of the tours) and he does all the marketing. Larger than life, Johann gave a most entertaining talk followed by a DVD presentation which left members in no doubt of the quality of the enterprise.
The special Christmas luncheon will be held on Wednesday, 25 November in the Lords and Legends conference room at noon for 12.30pm. The price remains unchanged at R120 but members pay only R105, the balance being sponsored by the club.
There will be sherry on arrival sponsored by Jerry Gertzen of Orange River Cellars. Entertainment will be provided by Tammy Saville and friends, ‘The Country Girls’, Four Paws and a Tale will be selling Christmas goodies.
Members are reminded that confirmation of intention to attend or not, and names of guests, must be received by Lyn on 082-572-1328 or 031-903-4026 or Golda on 083-633-6338 or 031-916-7001 no later than Friday, 20 November.
