Melton Country Club staff rack up 20 years

Lorelle Anderson and Robin Barber have greeted thousands of patrons walking through the doors of the Melton Country Club.

Their hard work, dedication and commitment to the club has seen the women form countless memories, which often leave them giggling when recalled.

Last month, Ms Anderson and Ms Barber celebrated their 20th anniversary at the club.

“The club has treated us so well and they’ve always been very supportive,” Ms Anderson says.

While countless staff members have come and gone, Ms Anderson says she has no plans of retiring any time soon.

“The morale is very strong here; we welcome people as if they’re our family and that’s what keeps us strong and why we’re still here.”

The women say they should have written a book about all the things they’ve seen and heard.

“I work at the front reception so I get to talk to a lot of people,” Ms Barber says. “And they tell me all their stories, which I just love listening to.”

And despite all the highs and lows, Ms Barber says there is “nothing I would change”.
