Friends for Life By Mandy ELLIS
THE Port Stephens Friendship Group held a lunch at Baroque Nelson Bay to celebrate the election of the new president and committee. It is an independent, not-for-profit social group for men and ladies, founded by local resident Bev Lee in 1995, after she recognised there were many in the community who needed to simply meet new friends. The focus of the group is solely on friendship and is supported by a hardworking committee who ensure that the members have lots of outings and activities to enjoy together such as dining out in local venues, casual barbecues on the beach, movie days, walking for pleasure, coach trips, and short holidays away together. The Friendship Group meets on the last Tuesday of the month in the corporate area of Diggers, Nelson Bay,
Outgoing president Richard Harris with vice president Noel Finch received appreciation awards.
