CITY OF PENRITH AUXILIARY
CASTLE HILL AUXILIARY
Auxiliary member Cheryl Hill is the first female President in 90 years of Castle Hill and District RSL sub-Branch history.
With 35 years of unwavering and voluntary dedication to supporting veterans and their families, Cheryl's visionary leadership and commitment have earned her the respect of fellow members. She's inspiring positive change and fostering a close-knit, inclusive community, promising a bright future for the sub-Branch.
This month, Castle Hill sub-Branch started weekly Art classes which are held in the Castle Hill Bowling Club and being run by local artist, Jan Mullan. Great efforts from first students, These classes are free for our Sub-branch and Auxiliary members to attend and will continue through to the end of the year.
As you know quilts play a huge part in RSL NSW Auxiliaries, we were delighted to hear that members at Castle Hill have made their Quilts for Service, the four recipients are:
Congratulations to them all and a wonderful job ladies, hopefully this will inspire other Auxiliaries to do the same. Not all people can sew, we understand that, but most areas have quilting groups and you never know talking to them may bring new members as well as quilts.
