The Club management would like to express their thanks to the<br />
ladies who provided top meals all weekend and to the many<br />
people in the town who contributed donations and trophies to the<br />
Club. Without the11 support local clubs could never host State<br />
Titles. It has proved the point again that Esperance is a generous<br />
town and a great place to live.<br />
