Hotdog Days – due to increases in the cost of rolls and Hotdogs, we have had to increase the price of Hotdogs to $3.00 for one and $3.50 for two.  This is the first time the price of the Hotdogs has been increased since Hotdog days started about 5 years ago.

 

Next meeting will be held on Monday 10th August at 1.30pm in the Conference Room at the Grimshaw Campus.  

 

New members are always welcome.
