Queensland Members were disappointed that we were unable to publicly present the first three grants from the Eastern Star Foundation at our Installation Ceremony. So, we arranged to have a mock presentation after our Grand Committee Meeting. We were able to get a photograph of each recipient being presented with the large format cheque and then each representative gave a short address explaining how their organisation supports the aged and what their grant funds enabled them to provide. The presentation was followed by a lovely lunch and opportunity to mingle and visit.
