Kerry Strydom said the Australian Cancer Research Foundation was delighted to be asked to speak to the group.

They had been approached by member Lynn Moffitt, a former Sydney volunteer, and the Club thanked Kerry for the inspiring information that she had provided.

The meeting was certainly memorable, and included the induction of new member Robert Mitchell who has been a welcome visitor at many recent gatherings.

President Rex Sneyd also spoke about some progressive ideas to increase the pleasure and value of being members.

Information about upcoming events was then provided by their organisers.

Members also enjoyed a morning tea which gave them the chance to register for upcoming events and to find a book or two to enjoy from the free library.
