Saturday, Bowral Golf Club hosted the
Legacy's mission as stated:-
"Legacy is a charity providing services to Australian families suffering financially and socially after the incapacitation or death of a spouse or parent, during or after their defence force service. We currently care for 100,000 widows and 1,900 children and disabled dependants throughout Australia."
Major General Michael Jeffery and Mrs Marlena Jeffery have supported our day for Legacy for many years and this year Michael was a very popular winner of the War Services Cup. On the day there were many, many competitions running concurrently, keeping track of these, Legacy Member, Bob Kemp, with dedicated helpers produced the winners from the vast array of cards, options and entries in a very timely fashion. (There have been times in the past that the results were not available until shortly before the 'pudding'.) |
