Fellow Spanners,
The final RAQ-DD function is just over a month away now, so I thought that I'd put out a reminder so that everyone could put it in their diaries:
- Date: 17 Nov 24
- Time: 1200h - 1600h
- Loc: Ambrose Deck, Toowoomba City Golf Club.
This event will also be our RAEME Birthday function, and we are very fortunate to have Ross and Leonie Grant attending. Ross will be giving a short update on current events in the Corps. To that end, if you know any fellow Spanners who may like to attend, please forward this email on. Partners also, of course. They do not need to be RAQ members - anyone who has served in the Corps is welcome.
For your diaries, dates for 2025 functions are as follows:
- 9 Feb 25
- 18 May 25
- 17 Aug 25
- 16 Nov 25.
I look forward to seeing you there.
Regards,
