For all you knowledgeable ‘nerds’ this is for you. Well, it’s more a matter of luck then how brainy you are! We get our heads together, several times a year.
   

Day trips

We are offered a full day out and about once a month.  We might visit a garden, go on a ‘Fish n Chip’ cruise up the Hawkesbury, visit Parliament House  with High Tea, or enjoy a coffee cruise on Sydney Harbour.  There’s always something different to look forward to.
   

Special Events

Throughout the year we have a few events that are ‘special’. One of these is our Christmas Luncheon.

Overnight Tours
 

Twice a year, we are offered a trip away. The duration depends on where we go and can vary from 7 – 14 days.

These ‘away’ tours have previously included a trip to New Zealand, a visit to the Mid North Coast, Canberra &  surrounds, Toowoomba and the Murray & High Country region, basing ourselves in Yarrawonga. If you’d like to travel to exciting new places among a warm and friendly bunch of people, these trips are just the thing.
