 President Andrea's Message .
 
We are the Champions ... We are the Champions.
Yes we are, $830.00 raised from our wonderful night at the Movies.
Lots of fun was had and yes I sung all through the movie. Would have got up and danced too if there was room.
 
Well done to everyone involved especially Lynette for keeping us presidents on track with it.
 
It's always good to chat to Andrew and I enjoyed his talk on Tuesday night.

A Riddle To Solve.
 
The answer to last weeks riddle:-
 
The third room—any lions who hadn't eaten in years would be dead!
 

The word "what" is spelled with four letters (w, h, a, and t). The word "sometimes" is spelled with 9 letters (s,o,m,e,t,i,m,e, and s) etc.

Thinking caps on again and try to solve this weeks riddle:-
 
A man is washing windows on the 25th floor of an apartment building. Suddenly, he slips and falls. He has nothing to cushion his fall, and no safety equipment—but he doesn't get hurt.
 
The answer will be in next weeks bulletin.
