2021 June Celebrations
Seventeen Gloucester VIEW Club members travelled to Taree on 22nd June to join with Taree VIEW Club to celebrate its 54th birthday.
The theme was black & white; the Trading Table was loaded with goodies; the raffles, guessing competition and 100 Club were very well supported and the lucky winners went home with an array of prizes.
The food was delicious and the cuppa on arrival accompanied by scones, jam and cream was most welcome.
It was another day of friendship with members enjoying a social occasion while raising funds for Learning for Life students. Congratulations Taree View
