DOM RETTINO WINS THE LINDSAY JONES

Dom's commitment and dedication has been a standout since he joined our club in 2016, but he went to another level this year in helping reorganise and refocus the committee - all while we were all coping with another year of the coronavirus pandemic.

He took on a key role in ensuring that memberships were paid promptly, was a driving force behind our functions and was a regular in the canteen on Saturday mornings preparing for the next function.
Dom's future is a bit up in the air at the moment, as he's moved to Geelong and is still trying to work through the logistics.
