The Choir’s 40th Anniversary Dinner was held on May 27th in the most attractive Lounge of Dee Why RSL. An excellent meal was accompanied by stories of the past forty years, told by our President, Roger Pratt, and by the one Choir member who can claim forty years continuous service, May Mackenzie. She modelled the original ladies’outfit of a green dress, and John Moore joined in with an original men’s green bow tie.
After dinner, Carlos entertained us to some songs with his own guitar accompaniment. He sang very sensitively, putting into action his instructions to us in the Choir on Thursday evenings to sing the sense of the words, not just the notes.
There was plenty of time to circulate and a good time was had by all. Many thanks to everyone who helped to make for a most enjoyable evening, especially to Judy Williams who masterminded the event.
Here’s to the next forty years!
