Launch Day Events

The launch was well attended by adults and children alike

This picture below is from the tennis club in 1930s, when it was at Portland Place. The young child on his Mum’s knee, on the right, is Sidney Tyson, who now plays at the bowling club next to our new home in Castle Park. Sidney’s dad played tennis as did he when he was older. He recalls at that time all the grass courts that there once were in Penrith. This picture is from the tennis club in 1930s, when it was at Portland Place.
