Club farewells Rod Parkes

There was a big turnout for Rod Parkes’ going away gathering on Saturday afternoon following the usual Jackpot competition.

Rod has been a valued member of the club for many years and his contributions have been invaluable. Rod has held many rolls within the Club and his enthusiasm and commitment to the sport has been motivational to all.

Rod has family commitments in Northern New South Wales but has promised to return for holidays. In the meantime he will be greatly missed and we wish him all the best.
