SPORTS AND CHAT
PAVILION PATIO GETTING READY FOR SPORTS
The reunion for 2003 had a light turnout of just over 50 persons on Civic Holiday, Monday, August 4. Nevertheless there was a good opportunity to renew acquaintances with cousins from four of the surviving branches descended from Alexander Ross and Margaret Noble, and a new generation of youngsters enjoyed the sports and questionnaire.


FOOT RACE THE GALLERY THE SHOE KICK

Can you spot the attentive 15-month-old youngster to the right in the first picture? I'll bet he is planning a "sleeper play" to outwit the older racers. Games included the "shoe kick" and the "water balloon toss".
