It was a very warm morning and some members took advantage of the shade area to partake in morning tea.
We are so pleased with our shade area which has been financed by our very own Croquet Club and the area is almost complete with three tables recently purchased by the Croquet Club from Felton Industries at Condobolin. We now have a small storage shed to complete and blinds for the area.
Our very valued member Joan Littlejohn is at present nursing a broken bone in her foot. We wish Joan a speedy recovery and look forward to seeing you back on the croquet lawns very soon.
A reminder to all our members that we will be holding a General Meeting after play on May 18. Members your attendance is important.
