Raffle Proceeds to Rural CFA brigades in Mt Disappointment area
DON’T MISS THIS MEETING.
We have lined up yet another interstate guest speaker for you all. Jeremy Browne from South Australia. More on that below.
Come an hear about the fabulous “Wellsford Wander” event, March 23 – a new style of rally event that was extremely well received by the competitors. Hear how we did it and were home before dinner!
Hear also the feedback from our first Rally Retro Day – it’s looking very promising for a success. If you can’t be at Avalon on April 7, then come to the meeting and hear how it all went down.
Each meeting we hold a raffle with all proceeds going to a charity – this time it is rural fire brigades in the area we will be competing the following Saturday – at the Victoria Cross Rally, Saturday April 13. That is Broadford, Clonbinane, Wandong, Flowerdale. Tickets are 3 for $5. Prizes – can you bring a prize for us to raffle off?
We are now just 10 months away from the final HRA Gnome #100, so it’s number 95 on offer in April. A handy pocket sized -go anywhere-Gnome will also be raffled off.
All welcome.
If you are new to the HRA or this will be your first meeting, please make yourself known to our Membership Secretary, Kate Officer.
Where: East Malvern RSL, Stanley Grose Drive, East Malvern
Time: 8:00 pm, meals: from 6:30 pm
