The club meets on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of the month.
The 2nd Thursday is our Board Meeting at Bowning Hall 7.30pm, supper only.
The 4th Thursday is our Dinner Meeting 7.00pm, which is a moving feast (pun intended) throughout our area. To save driving, most members organise to share a car for the night.
Visitors are welcome, but please phone Secretary Leonie on 6226 3995 to book.
We are a hard working club and find ourselves involved in all sorts of activities including driving 100s of km to attend Swap Meets and other car activities, in order to give out cards and posters for our own Swap Meet.
June Field keeps us on our toes with regular street stalls, the next being April 16. These usually involve a raffle. The next raffle is a huge load of firewood. Look for us in the pubs and clubs – selling tickets. Well, maybe having the odd beer too.
We run a Public Speaking Competition for primary schools in the area. After the last one everyone agreed it was a singularly entertaining evening. These kids are Fantastic. Sorry, I meant Cool. Or was that Sick? But certainly well worth listening to.
We have taken advantage of LionWap Free Web Pages, and you can see more about our Swap Meet and Auction on
