Overview

This photograph is captioned ''Pirate's Den'' and is dated Wednesday 15th September 1976.

The reason for the occasion is not known but the centre of attraction appears to be Bill Barnes so perhaps it was a birthday party or other celebration. It features many of the characters of Melville Glades of that era. All people are identified on the rear of the photograph.

Back: Darryl Harburn, Don Moran, Bill Barnes, Laurie Johnston

Middle: Doris Strachan, Geoff Holmes, Ross Williams, (Darryl or Colin?)

Harburn’s wife, Rachelle Moran, Edith Barnes, Jack’s wife, Jack Baker, Joy Palmer, John Palmer

Front: Megan Holmes, Ross William’s partner, Dawn Johnston, Colin Harburn, Betty Saunders, (Darryl or Colin?) Harburn’s wife, Brian Saunders

The photograph was removed from an album where it was adhered to the cardboard backing pages. The album contained several sets of photographs believed to have been taken by Geoff Holmes, MGGC President in 1976-77. With Geoff himself pictured it is not known who took this photograph.
