There was a great atmosphere at the Pakenham Cricket Club on Saturday as the Lions hosted their Life Members, Sponsors and Social Members Day at Toomuc Reserve.
Pakenham President Phil Anning welcomed everyone to the event; giving special thanks to the Life Members for giving so much to the club, along with praising the club’s 51 sponsors and 75 social members for their ongoing support.
Pakenham had a great victory over the previously undefeated Kooweerup to top off a great day for the club.
“I always look forward to this day every year,” Anning told the Gazette.
“Games between Pakenham and Kooweerup are always hard-fought, but the players and supporters of both clubs respect each other immensely and take the day in the right spirit.
“It was great to see so many familiar faces at the club, mingling, telling stories and engaging in some friendly banter.
“Thanks to our members, sponsors, Emma Vulin (MP for Pakenham) and supporters of Kooweerup for making the day so special.”
Pakenham’s next event will be even bigger, with more than 200 ladies booked in for the ‘Sold Out’ Pink Ladies Day on Saturday 2 March.
