Women's Section
The Te Awamutu RSA Women's Section Members meet on the second Thursday of each month at the club at 1.00pm. A coffee morning is held on the first Thursday of each month at 10.00am giving members a chance to catch up, have a chat and socialise. We enjoy guest speakers, entertainment, raffles, summer bus trips etc and often join in with the Workingmen's Club Friendship Group to share travel costs on bus trips.
One of the busiest times in the Women's Section calendar is around ANZAC Day when members organise rosters for poppy selling throughout the town, pin the poppies and provide lunch for those involved on the day.
The Women's Section is available on request for catering for the funerals of members held at the RSA.
