Hi everyone,
Well, what a fantastic last game
for 2012 we all had at Yar-
rambat on 11 December.
We had 40 players and most of
them kicked on at the presenta-
tion and BBQ which was held at
Tony Kastropil’s after the game.
May I take this opportunity to
thank Tony and Maria for their
hospitality. It was a great way
to finish the year off!
Also thanks to Jerry Cymbalak
who cooked some mean steak
and sausages. They were deli-
cious!
I would also like to announce
that the winner of the bag raffle
was Richard Lyszczarz. Check
out the photo inside.
It was great to see Paul Teres at
Editor’s Corner

the function too, even though he
still wasn’t quite well enough to
play. Thanks for supporting the
club Paul!
Also thanks to Roman
Popowycz who wasn’t well
enough to play, but came to do
his Captain’s duties by starting
everyone off and staying until
after the presentation. Good
effort Roman!
Well, that’s about it from me this
year.
Have a safe Christmas and
New Year and hope to see you
all back again for the January
game.
Tsjom, Tsjom.
