Our social calendar was subject to changes this year with some old ones going out and new ones coming in.
The Chinese Pasta / Pizza Night was on again well received averaging 25-30, these functions are subsidised and for those who come along always have an enjoyable night.
One of the new functions was a night at the football. The only problem was manly gave us a touch up. The night was well attended.
The Blue & White Cabaret was a big one this year. 160 members and guests getting along to the Blueberry Hill Room. Chris Bettiol receiving Life Membership this year.

Golf Committee Report
On an overcast and rainy Sunday morning, 37 members and guests turned up for a round of golf for the Annual Golf Day at Sefton Golf Course. It was lucky they remembered their umbrellas, as the morning rain was present. By 7.50am the sun appeared in the sky and no more rain was there on the day.
Catering for the day included a BBQ breakfast and BBQ and refreshments after the first 9 holes followed by BBQ, salads and refreshments after the completion of the 18 holes.
The highlight of the day was the magnificent shot by Matthew Farrelly on the 8th hole, which resulted in a hole in one.
At the conclusion of the game, the scores and handicaps were allocated and the winners and prizes were presented on the day.
Special appreciation to Peter Longhurst and Cliff Haynes for working out the handicap and winners. Special thanks goes to Glenn Jeffcoat, Joe Attard and Lionel Brown for their duties on the BBQ and the supply of refreshments.
As there was no corporate sponsorship this year for prizes, the cost was incurred by the Referees’ Association and this will come under budget costs of 5.93% for the 2007 budget.
At this stage no venue has been decided for the 2008 Golf Day. A venue will be decided on in the near future and the information will be forwarded on.
Kind Regards
BRIAN BARKER GOLF COMMITTEE 2007
