Farewell BBQ
The majority of our
functions are being held at the magnificent venues located at Dockside
Apartments / Snug Harbour and Captains Cove, all located at Ferry Street,
Kangaroo Point, Brisbane. Map Reference BRIZWAY Q15. 50 of our group
are already booked into Dockside Apartments.
Greg, the owner of
Captains Cove has provided a breakfast consisting of bacon, eggs, toast
and tea/coffee or fruit juice for only $10 per head. (normal price is
$25) Breakfast is available to all intake members and their partners
along with family and friends, daily from 0800 – 1000.
I feel sure that everyone would agree that $130 p/h for a formal dinner
with band, a Lord Mayors Reception, an after march function with plenty of
music to dance to and a farewell BBQ is an excellent price. Having
compared our prices with a number of other re-union groups we are hundreds
of dollars cheaper, with our venues all being a class above
the rest. Also consider the possibility of getting refunded some of your
money. This is our main aim. Your support with our raffle and Calcutta is
paramount. Information on the Calcutta will be
provided at a later date.
Finally I would like
to take this opportunity to thank your hard working committee, George
Picone, Dave Morris, Ed Marecki and Sharon Johnson. Sensational work
guys. BZ Well Done.
Special thanks also
to: John Curbishley and Pete Brimacombe - your
support and hard work is very much appreciated.
On behalf of our
intake it gives me great pleasure to see everything come together and it
has been great speaking to most of you already. For those I haven’t been
able to contact yet, I will get to you in the coming months.
Please Note:
Given the current economic climate regarding fuel & living costs, if we
experience any venue price increase, the sale of raffle tickets will pay
for the increase. So again this highlights the importance of our raffle.
Thanks one and all
Cheers Bob

REGISTRATION
Have you sent
your $25 Registration money?
We require
registration payment URGENTLY to cover venue deposits.
Please note your $25
Registration money (per head) will de deducted from your final four day
function costs. Your registration money is totally separate from your
accommodation costs. We must meet venue booking costs and stationery
costs now.
Check our Website
for updates and we will keep you up to speed on a regular basis as
information is made available to us. i.e. Position in the March and Step
Off Time etc. You can also give Bob a ring at anytime on the numbers
below. If you are talking to anyone please pass
on all information if they are not on the net. We will be sending out all
information in the mail; however we would also rely on the info Network to
have details circulated.
Please forward your
four day function costs of $130 per head ASAP as this will help streamline
and speed up the registration process. With registration taking place
between 1200 – 1700 on Thursday 23 April, we do not want to be processing
large numbers who have not paid all outstanding monies. Particularly
seeing we have to be seated by 1730 for an 1800
Entrée. Your hardworking committee have done an outstanding job to have
us where we are at present.
Please support us in
making the registration a quick process.
We also need your
arrival and departures times for the 4 days of functions.
See our Leeuwin
Website at
http://www.leeuwinclassof64.org or give Bob a ring

NEW BANNER
We are getting a new banner made up which is going to be something
special. Still waiting on confirmation from everyone regarding what
recognised operational areas you served in. We must have official
documentation confirming your operational service. Cut off date is 14
December 2008.
To enable us to pay for the new banner we are asking for 50 cents per week
from each intake member commencing 1 Aug 08 – 31 Mar09 which works out to
be $22. Thanks for your support. Any monies left over will be refunded.

RAFFLE
We are conducting a raffle to raise funds
which we hope will enable us to reimburse some of your four day function
costs. Our aim is to give all intake members and their paying partners
cash back for each person to spend as they see fit. WE WILL NOT BE
PUTTING IT OVER THE BAR
You will receive
raffle tickets (100 or 50), and as you will see the tickets are extremely
generously priced.
As of the 10th
July 2008 we have 43 prizes, one of which has been donated by our own Alan Stehr (Thanks mate).
We are asking each
intake member to source sponsors or raffle prizes. It would be
sensational if we could have 50 prizes or more. Ask your local newsagent
for scratchies or anyone who would consider supporting us. Ask your local
electrical goods retailer, your local pubs / clubs etc. HAVE A GO. Please
let me know ASAP if you have any success with prizes, cash vouchers etc
via email or phone.
