Meeting #3438
 
Casterton Croquet Club
 
President Darren welcomed and made a toast to the Casterton Croquet Club and its members for hosting us tonight. Those present included, Yvonne, Sandra, Narelle, Agnes, Sue and Dallas.
 
The Croquet ladies thanked Casterton Rotary for their monetary contribution toward the table and chairs, that came in very handy tonight.
 
Darren attended the Group 1 meeting and will give a more detailed account at next meeting.
 
Rory Spiers attended the National Youth Science forum in January and loved it. He will join us at a future meeting to give us a rundown of all that occurred there.
 
It was great to see Robbie and Jean back with us.
 
A number of hotly contested games of croquet followed. From the amount of laughter heard, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Many thanks to the Croquet ladies for giving up their time to teach us some of the finer points of croquet.
