Hello again members and friends,

Happy to report we had another very busy week at the Semaphore Port Adelaide RSL. The regular 8 Ball competition on Wednesday night saw a substantial crowd in the club, enjoying our facilities and the best views of the Semaphore foreshore and sunset. We continue to support our 8 Ball team with RSL sponsorship. This year they are planning a bigger than ever competition and I’ll bring you more details as they evolve.

On Friday night Theresa and I cooked dinner for our Member’s Night and thanks to all who braved our cooking and supported the club. I did get some good feedback that everyone was happy with the meals by the way. The person who could have been $500 richer was Michael Brice but unfortunately he wasn’t there, so that means this week’s Members’ Cash Draw is a BIG $600.

On Saturday night we were proud to host and support the Priceline Sisterhood Foundation’s Quiz Night. Over 80 trivia buffs had a fantastic time raising money for this worthy cause and our very own Red Hot Trivia Peppers team (comprising some of our committee and friends) came an honourable 2nd place by a very small 4 point margin. Well done Peppers!!

This week we have Open Mic Night on Thursday and our new Chef Geoff is offering a fantastic “All You Can Eat” pasta/rice/couscous meal deal for $12 and $8 for members. And of course, Friday night is Members’ night with Chef Geoff’s new menu and the chance to win $600 and the meat tray raffle.

IMPORTANT: This Sunday is General Meeting day and we encourage ALL members to attend. We have a full program for the afternoon. Come along for lunch from 12noon with a choice of 4 mains and 2 desserts for $12 (Bargain!!) followed by the meeting at 1pm and all members that attend the meeting will be entitled to a free drink. At the conclusion of the meeting we will have local band “Grid The Band” playing for an afternoon of fun and entertainment. For catering purposes if you are intending to have lunch before the meeting please let Secretary David Kerr know by texting him on 0417865623.
