The Park alongside the Fullarton Park Community Centre is named Kumangka -which means “together” in Kaurna and “signifies a place of people coming together”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So this is the ideal location to hold the Sprite Club’s annual Christmas Picnic prior to the December General Meeting. Nearly 40 people attended the perfect evening for a picnic and get together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While people enjoyed their BYO Picnic dinner, the Club provided a vast range of beverages to lubricate the members. This spot with the eskies was a popular meeting place for the male members of the Sprite Club!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Gordon interrupted the proceedings to Welcome all and make a small announcement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the coming week Life Member Gary Brock will be turning a Spritely 90 years old! Gary and wife Fay have been extremely active in the Sprite Club, and other community groups for many years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There was a few kind words and Gary was presented with an embroidered Sprite Club jacket. A quick chorus of “Happy Birthday” and a range of speciality cup cakes appeared to finish off the picnic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soon it was time to head inside for the General Meeting part of the night. After the usual minutes, financial and associated reports, it was time for General Business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Gordon announced the competition trophy winners for 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These winners were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sprite Driver of the Year – Clive Spreadbury<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Associate Driver of the Year – Gerard Miller<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lady Driver of the Year – Helen Stephenson<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Encouragement Award – Lee Kernick<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gerard was the only one present, so the the other trophies will be presented in the near future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pat Miller had calculated that all of the Sprite drivers had totalled over 680 laps of both the Bend and Mallala circuits during the year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Congratulations to all of these deserving winners!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The evening soon drew to a close and the members said their goodbyes and passed on Christmas and Festive Season Greetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks must go to the following for supplying the drinks, cup cakes, Gary’s gift and for transporting Gary and Fay from Gumeracha to the meeting and return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
