Dr MARJORIE O'NEILL (Coogee) — Congratulations to Coogee SLSC who recently held their 114th Annual General Meeting in August. As part of the AGM, the club paid tribute to some of their most dedicated members who have passed over the past year. These legends included Life Members Charles 'Barrie' Cribb ASM and Barry 'Bolla' Telford as well as long service Members Norman 'Nob' Hill, Lawrence 'Lobster Bob' Rigby and Jeffrey 'Sayley' Sayles. Also remembered was Felicity Brown (nee Breene) who was one of the trailblazing women who joined the club in the first cohort of female members in the 1981/1982 season. Congratulations to previous and long serving secretary of the club, Pat Garcia, for his elevation to Life Member of the Coogee SLSC. Pat has worked tirelessly for the club for many years and is a deserving recipient of this honour. I would like to acknowledge the two outgoing executive members, Deputy President, Sharon Deans and Secretary, Rachel Garcia. Thank you both for your dedication and service to this great club.
