I take this opportunity, on behalf of the members of Nambour Croquet Club, past and present, to express our appreciation to Patrick Farrell, who has been our successful and personable Publicity Officer over a number of years.

In looking up a photo of Patrick, it was difficult to find one where he didn't have a lady or two in attendance! The Irish charm, I think.

Patrick is stepping down as Publicity Officer, but we hope he will still be a regular and very welcome visitor to the club. Our next social/play event will be St Patrick's Day (soon to be announced), where we hope Patrick will be our focal figure.

Patrick will be known to croquet players across the region, who I know will join us in wishing Patrick a happy and healthy future.
