Coffee Day at Northbridge Village 18th August 2015

Some 28 of our members enjoyed a great day at this lovely lifestyle village. Some 40 - 50 residents joined-us to share the music and the camaraderie. A big thank you to Jim Nicholson, our resident host and Club member, and to Northbridge's Pat Waite for working with our Events Manager, Diane Lyons, to set-up this wonderful day. As always a big thank you to the Committee members for making everything flow smoothly and to all our playing members who came along to share the fun and share their music.
