Bushflyers Swarm Feb 2016

Monday, 22 February 2016

 

Thanks to Valerie Barker and Jack Palmer for presenting the Badge awards at the Bushflyers Swarm at the Stocks family home.

David Poland took out the FlySwat award for something daft, while Toni Brown took out the Blue Bottle award for services to the club.  

 

The kids ( and even some adults ) splashed in the pool whilst the rest of us sat around and yarned. 

Congratulations to the 47 from Bushflyers who this year achieved a Gold, Silver or Bronze Badge for their excellence at major events. The photos show the recipients proudly displaying their badges, and the full list of recipients is below.
