From the President: Membership subscriptions are a cornerstone of the annual funding for our RSA and I seek your support for early payment. The cost works out at just over $1-a-week for the range of services we offer. To make early payment a bit more attractive – and add a bit of fun - we are offering three sets of two free meals plus a small carafe of wine for payments made by Friday 20th February 2015. The three winners will be selected in an electronic draw from 2015 subs payments made by the above date, on the first Wednesday evening following = Wed 25th Feb. Your support for your RSA is valued. Chris Turver 06-3643640 or 027-2301601 Karaoke Friday 16th January Friday 30th January President’s Report Welcome to 2015….. and hopefully a New Year resolution by all our members to help your Executive and staff to strengthen and grow our RSA. It’s the start of a year that will see Paraparaumu RSA live up to its purpose more than ever before as we head into the World War One commemorative programme with the re-dedication of the Memorial Arch on 14 February, the centenary of the Gallipoli landings on ANZAC Day, and our RSA ANZAC Day Show. 2015 will also bring its usual share of challenges and opportunities for our RSA – the greatest of which from my perspective are making sure we can survive in a constantly changing world and safeguarding the values our organisation stands for. It’s those values, and our behind-the-scenes support work for our members, that give RSAs a human face and make us unique in a highly-competitive club environment. Thank you for your support. Best wishes for 2015. Chris Turver President Sat 14th February from 2pm Join in the celebrations around the upgraded Memorial Gates.

The Welfare Section had a busy month of December; this included funerals. Also we had our Widows and Widowers Christmas Party which went down well. I thank you {my welfare people} also to our staff for great work that you did. Now ,I have to say this to you all; being Welfare Officer is not an easy job. You do a lot of work behind the scenes that people do not see . There are some people that seem to think that you can be in any one place on immediate demand. You have to remember there is only one of me and only a very small team of helpers. We try our best to get around to all people we possibly can, as fast as possible but sometimes too many events occur at once and delays will inevitably occur. So please spare a thought for the Welfare team as we carry out our work.
