2022 July
This month we celebrated our Club's 55th Birthday. It was a splendid evening, with decorated tables; an amazing cake baked and served for dessert by our own Heidi Woodhead.
Members enjoyed a wonderful speaker, Faye Yarroll with her companion hearing dog, who spoke to us about her life as a double Cochlear Implant recipient.

Members were extremely happy to welcome Michael Booth to our February meeting.
Michael is a descendant of a passenger who sailed on the Titanic and gave us a lot of lesser known information about the Titanic and it's passengers. Michael came resplendently dressed as Captain Smith, together with his young assistant, Alison (as Lady Astor).
Michael also brought along artefacts and some of his amazing Titanic models.

November
Ten of our members went on a tour of the State Theatre in Sydney. The State, which opened in June 1929, has some wonderful history and artworks. The now 2035-seat theatre (originally many more) has had many additions and renovations over the years, yet still retains a definite 'return to a bygone era' appeal.
Our group enjoyed all three levels of the theatre, walking about the stage and being given the theatre's history as we went. Following the tour we all enjoyed a well-earned lunch at Cellinis in the Queen Victoria Building.
