View club turns 21

The Endeavour View Club celebrated its 21st birthday on the Peninsula with a special event held at Everglades Country Club on June 1.

More than 70 club members attended the birthday event including special guest View Club National Councillor Ms Thelma Chant.

A black, white and silver theme was created for members and guests to enjoy on the day.

Inaugural members Ms Jean Waterfield, Ms Queenie Hutchinson, Ms Joyce Martin, Ms Eunice Byfield and Ms Beryl Garden were also in attendance to celebrate the club's milestone.

Club publicity office Ms Viv Donovan said all club members had a wonderful time marking 21 years together and looked forward to many more years to come.

"After a wonderful lunch the ladies were entertained by the KB Singers," Ms Donovan said.

"The Endeavour View Club was formed in the Bicentennial year 1988, so it was fitting to be named after Captain James Cook's Ship The Endeavour.

"Forty ladies attended the very first meeting and today the membership has grown to 73.

"View clubs are an important part of the Smith Family, raising money to assist families in need and to provide a wonderful social support network for local women."
