The first Sutton Lounge for 2023 proved to be a popular evening, with the largest attendance for some time. The weather was perfect, so many took advantage of that and sat outside.
Fortunately, the BOM’s prediction was wrong and we had a lovely sunny evening to enjoy our annual Christmas party. The island looked fabulous (thanks Greg), and members, children and friends were able to see the island looking its best.
Cup Day at the Club was a fun day even though the weather could have been better. We were in the barbecue area and Sutton lounge so it was quite warm and comfortable. People brought their own food and snacks to share, and a good time was had by all.
Proceedings began with the formal part of the day, and Steve Beashel performing the MC role. Commodore Jamie Dorrity welcomed everyone, and daughter Georgia gave us a beautiful rendition of the National Anthem.
It was a great pleasure to host the Liberal Candidate for Mordialloc Phillip Pease and Shadow Minister for Environment, James Newbury on Lambert Island this week to announce $10M to fund the dredging of Mordialloc Creek!
After a long hiatus, courtesy of Melbourne’s record long lockdowns, the Open Mike night returned. The Sutton lounge was positively jumping, and celebrations went on into the early hours of the morning, with guests dancing and enjoying the talent.
For obvious covid reasons, we have not hosted the very popular Open Mic.(rophone) night in recent years. There has been, however, an upsurge in enquiries and an increase in the natural talent within our mighty club sees the reintroduction of the Open Mic. Night.
