Club Night 1st March 2016

The start of the evening was given over to our 39th  Annual General Meeting! The Club has been in continuous operation since 1977 - veritably an institution! The AGM only took half an hour and the existing Committee Members all stood for re-election (thanks awfully) and then Roy Steen entertained us on the Clavinova for  a few improvised pieces before we went for an early supper so that the room could be re-arranged for the music in the second half.

After drawing the raffle prizes, the second half of the evening started with Yvonne Moller playing her Korg Pa1X. Yvonne was followed by Warren Levick on the Clavinova; Diane Lyons on her Yamaha PSR-3000 and finishing with Barbara McNab on the Clavinova. Great music 'guys'.

Coffee Day at Algies Bay 16th February 2016

What a wonderful venue for our members to socialize and enjoy great music, great food and luxurious surroundings in the sub-tropical Algies Bay - just 45 minutes north of Auckland.
Kevin had spend two days erecting two adjoining marquis to extend the garage/rumpus room. This provided lots of fresh, cool breezes and appreciated shade from the sun. We were treated to a sumptuous lunch courtesy of Jan and Kevin and contributions from our members 'plates'. Some members stayed on into the evening when we were treated to professional musicians performing whilst we ate a very delightful BBQ supper.
All in all, another wonderful day at the Johnston's beautiful home in lovely Algies Bay.
