We had some glorious weather on Sunday which made both playing footy and watching it a joy. Congratulations to the Marshall family on winning the raffle last Friday at the AHWTR – the 50 inch smart TV was donated by Harvey Norman Commercial in Port Melbourne. The Marshall’s winning the TV on Friday night was well deserved considering both their son’s recent misfortunes – Jed’s broken leg and Sam’s broken arm. We hope both boys are recovering and wish you all the best. This is a family who has volunteered many hours to the Club.
This Sunday is the annual Red Shield Appeal – raising money for the Salvo’s. Information should have been communicated by Team Managers by now. For more info, click here >
Please note that we have rescheduled the next AHWTR to Friday July 15th so please save the date and come along to Boss James for another great family club night.
