Things of interest

Dear Auxiliary members and friends,

It was really good to see so many at last night's meeting and pizza night.

I'm attaching a flier with a scan of the quilt that we discussed last night. Kay has kindly agreed to sell tickets at Workin' Clobber so can you please support the raffle by buying your tickets there or collect a book of tickets from Kay or Lois to sell yourselves.

The Remnants Craft Group made two quilts last year - one for us and one for Dixons Creek and members are interested in being kept up to date with its progress. Dixons Creek had a "blind auction" and raised $1000 - Fergusson Winery won it and now have it on display. Half that amount would be really nice!

David has asked me to let you know that it looks like the Brigade is getting a new vehicle to replace Tanker 1 hopefully before the end of the year. The vehicle is a 3.4D crew cab. This four wheel drive vehicle holds 3500 litres of water compared with our present truck's 2000 litres. This state of the art truck is currently at Caroline Springs.
