2011-11-11T03:23:35Z

The CEBA 2011 AGM will be held at the Mt Lawley Golf Course on Tuesday 6th December (hopefully a date that won't conflict with your other end of year events)

As it's one of our major events for the year it's sure to be a fitting end to our 40th year celebrations

We have been fortunate enough to secure Rick Hart, a retail leader in our State, with many interesting life experiences to be our guest speaker. It promises to be an entertaining lunch. And speaking of lunch, you can download the menu, which should convince you to be there.

Don't forget to bring a valued client or staff member.

What better way to spend a couple of hours, than celebrating our 40 years of involvement with the small business community of our locality.

All details are attached and we look forward to seeing you.

Sad News - Dave "Ossie" Oswald

2011-11-03T06:37:30Z

We have been saddened to learn of the passing of “ Ossie “, a founding and Life Member of our business Association. A true character, always with a smile on his face and a joke at the ready,

Dave Oswald was the proprietor of Morley Park Panel prior to his retirement to Mandurah. His funeral is 3.30pm tomorrow, at Karakatta.

He was passionate about our business group, connecting people in both a trading and social sense.

“Ossie “ has left his mark on our 40 year history. For those who had a lot to do with him, one of his favourite sayings, that will remain with us, was : “you bend em, we mend em“

A great bloke, gone but not forgotten.
