At the October Harcourt CWA meeting, members said goodbye to their dear friend Alma Chaplin and thanked her for her 50 years of service to the Country Women’s Association (CWA) and the friendship she had shared with them all.
Harcourt CWA members sat around the table and cheered Alma Chaplin for 50 years of service at their branch.
“What a wonderful achievement, fifty years of baking her famous Sour Cream Apple Slice and Savoury Scones to serve at Harcourt CWA’s afternoon teas,” said fellow member and friend Lyn Rule.
“Fifty years of pouring tea and coffee at our various functions, and fifty years of going out into her beautiful garden to pick flowers to make the posies that are given as gifts to our many office bearers and visitors,” Lyn said.
“Alma was always willing and able to lend a hand, to participate in concerts and fundraising events, always had a smile, and in true CWA fashion, Alma was a friend to us all,” Lyn said.
