Our monthly Meeting is held on the Fourth Tuesday of the month at the Masonic Centre, 616 Barkly Street, Golden Point from 10am until 12 midday. (May 2024 pictured)
After a brief formal meeting, news items etc we enjoy an extended morning tea to catch up with each other. During the second part of the meeting we are usually treated to a presentation from a very interesting speaker who may be a visitor or one of our own members. See list below. All are invited to join together for a reasonably priced lunch at a local hotel after the meeting. |
Examples of Recent Programs |

| 2024 | |||
| Oct | Howard who has led our October get-aways for many years will give us all a chance to reminisce about these wonderful times. | ||
| Sept | Phillip, one of our newer members, shocked us by arriving with a rifle. We settled down when he assured us that he had no ammunition and had the proper authority to bring it. He spoke very entertainingly about a very varied and adventurous life. | ||
| August |
Our many Interest Groups displayed examples of their recent activities and leaders spoke briefly. After the break one of our members spoke very passionately about his recent tour of China. Just one of the interesting facts was that nearly all vehicles there are now electric and petrol stations are vew and far between. |
