We are in the process of organising for our very senior Navy Veterans a chance to have one last day at sea before they "Cross the Bar". We have access to a suitable vessel for the day. The Vets being catered for are in their 70's and 80's and 10 in total are being sought for the day (we have two so far). The funding will go towards paying for two wreaths, commemorative personalised T Shirts, a luncheon and a semi formal dinner on arrival back at North Shore. Estimated cost to be covered is between $1000 - $1500. All committee members (9 in total) are helping crew our vessel of choice and giving their time freely and will also have a personalised T Shirts.
