Couple of important announcements:

***Valley players, partners and supporters are encouraged to attend our Parma & Pot night at the Moonee Ponds Club after training on Tuesday, January 31.

The Moonee Ponds Club, at 622 Mt Alexander Rd is a major and long-term sponsor of our Club, and it's important that we return their support.

We will be arriving about 8.15pm, after training, and neat training gear is acceptable. Players are encouraged to bring their partner.

We need to give approximate numbers in advance to the Moonee Pond Club, so those planning to support the night should phone Charlie Walker on 0409 237 543 with details about who will be coming, or email him at charlie.walker@optusnet.com.au

And on Saturday, February 18 we've got a triple-header - Pink Stumps Day (also on the Sunday and on the Friday for juniors), a "back to the club" for life members and past players, and our poker night. Make sure you're there!
