A number attempted to conceal their identity behind masks but fooled no-one. Yet others donned the colours of the flag looking very Italian. A few dapper Italian Gentlemen were in attendance and raised the dress standard considerably!!
The evening’s stand out’s were the Gondoliers. Two crews competed, but one (who won best dressed award) were unfortunately left up the canal without a paddle!! The formal part of the evening included the departing address from President Bruce with a presentation to each of the outgoing officers with thanks for their work and dedication throughout the year.
The increase in membership during the year was recognized and again, congratulations to Beryl Robinson for her outstanding efforts to bring this about. President Bruce was presented with the customary cartoon caricature.
