Christmas Party 2021

Sunday December 12 the RMYS Yard was taken over with an explosion of Christmas cheer as members celebrated the year that's been and all things Christmas. Hosted by the newly formed Events Committee, this event created the perfect post lockdown end of year catch up for nearly 180 members and guests. Some of the highlights included:
  • The BBQ pumping out delicious sausages for everyone!
  • Santa stopping by with gifts for the children!
  • The much loved Titanics giving a fantastic performance!
  • Many members (and their children) rocking spectacular face painting!
  • The yard being filled with creative chalk drawings!
  • The Wetbar operating as a bar and cool reprieve from the sun!
  • More candy than we could eat!
  • And a whole lot of laughter and joy as members and friends had a long overdue catch up!
Lots more photos are posted on the Website post here.
