GREENHILLS BEACH SPRING BEACH CLASSIC A big thank you to everyone who helped out at the Greenhills Beach Spring Beach Classic on Sunday 13th October 2013.

And how fantastic were the under 14 girls doing a Zumba dance! Thank you to Chris Fox and his band of helpers for making this event another successful day at Wanda. A big thank you to our sponsors Greenhills Beach/ Australand and Crust Pizza Cronulla for their support. Also, Brooks, Nova 969 and Snap Printing.

Solly’s Joke of the Newsletter A girl was visiting her blonde friend, who had acquired two new dogs, and asked her what their names were. The blonde responded by saying that one was named Rolex and one was named Timex.

Her friend said “Whoever heard of someone naming dogs like that!” “HELLLOOOOOOOO….” answered the blond. “They’re watch dogs!”
