Club Cruise to The Depot, Deniliquin
Saturday 12th December 2020.
Saturday 12th December 2020.
Hi all, hope everyone is doing ok. It has been a long time between drinks. And a long time since the last Cruise.
However....
If Dan eases Covid restrictions further, we are planning a Club Cruise on Saturday the 12th Dec to "The Depot" Motor Museum & Diner at Deniliquin.
Leaving from the Huntly Bakery at 9am, stopping in Moama for a short break, then on to Deni for lunch and a tour of the museum. Club member Mal has visited this place and reckons it's well worth the drive.
For more details visit: www.depotdeni.com.au
Later on that arvo, from around 6pm, we plan to open up the Clubhouse for a BBQ. All Club Members are welcome. All this is depending on restrictions being eased. Keep this date free if you can!

Club Cruise to Piccoli's Spanner Sculptures
Saturday 25th August
Leaving from our Clubhouse on Saturday morning at 10:15am , we will be travelling to the Railway Hotel in Boort for a relaxing lunch, before heading off to visit Piccoli's Spanner Sculptures. A garden wonderland of animals - horses, bulls, fish, mermaids and more. All larger than life, inhabiting this rambling oasis - their spectacular forms crafted from rusty brown spanners. The intricate sculptures are superbly proportioned, giving them a strangely life-like quality.
John, the creator of this attraction has another passion, and that is birds. His garden is dotted with enclosures housing brightly coloured and often rare species.
From here, make you own way home to Bendigo, or follow some of the boys across to the Wychitella Pub to
fill in the remaining afternoon.
Further info here.
As always, thanks to the Events Guys for doing the research and planning this cruise.
