Life Membership Awarded at Dinner Night

---- Interested in the RSL - Want to become a member? Contact us. ----

At our dinner night on 19 July 24 we enjoyed an excellent lasagne dinner and witnessed our member Neville Jaeschke receive an RSL Life Member award from the RSL SA President, David Petersen. 

Neville joins a list of members recognised for their service and dedication to the objects of the RSL and their local sub-branch over a lengthy period. To be considered for a Life Member award, one must have been a continuous service member for 15 years and have displayed 10 years of outstanding service.

Neville is well qualified to meet these criteria.

Neville served with the Australian Army after call-up as a National Serviceman during the Vietnam War era. 

Before accepting the award, Neville gave members a short talk about dahlias a flower close to his heart. Further details about Neville, his RSL membership, and his life-long love of dahlias have been advised to members separately via a private link.

Neville is the second member we have at present who is a Life Member. Our Past President, Trevor Klose was also awarded Life Membership at the 2023 Annual General Meeting. Both still continue their contribution to our sub-branch for which members are most grateful.

The Lasagne Dinner

Our sub-branch meets most Friday evenings from 5 pm and once per month we have a dinner evening. These evenings are very popular with our members who enjoy the food, the beverages, and of course the good fellowship.

Thirty-eight diners attended this dinner night and the following photos show some of the action:

 Our wonderful catering team prepared and served the meals and cleaned up afterwards. Here are photos of Charmane, Christina and Dawn Nuttall. Not shown are Dawn Klose and Sue Riebke who also helped on the night. The catering team members share the cooking role and do an excellent job.
