Tuesday 30 October 2018 -

Last Saturday seen the annual Rotary Duck race take place down Bullock Creek and what a great event. It was the first time I had been there to enjoy it if standing in the cold water for a couple of hours was fun.

Thanks Richard for a well organised fundraiser, with only 15 small ducks unsold and I think I am correct in saying 54 corporate ducks sold. The corporate ducks are a huge success and the effort some of the businesses had gone too to decorate their ducks was amazing.

Maybe next year we could look to make a bigger effort to sell more corporate ducks and maybe have them on show a week before and give the public a chance to pick the best dressed duck.

A reminder about upcoming events.

With Melbourne cup falling on a meeting night it has been decided to go to Urban Grind and watch the MELBOURNE CUP, so no meeting on the 6th November at the Golf Club.

On the 10th November there is a District day at the highland race track and if you want to go please let me or Chris know before the 2nd November please so we can advise numbers for catering. There will be the chance to have a drive on the race track for a small fee and there is also the opportunity to bid in an action for a hot lap in a race car.

That’s it from me; look forward to seeing you on Tuesday.
