Monthly Meetings for 2010 / 2011

Coming Events for 2003

ANNUAL CLUB LUNCHEON & PRIZE-GIVING: Riverside @
Woodbridge. This is a delightful little café next to the National Trust?s
Woodbridge House in the suburb of the same name and right on the
Swan River. Follow the signs: go off the highway down Ford Street,
meet there at 11.30am and have a stroll around the grounds and out
on the jetty. Do a spot of fishing? On hearing the noonday gun we
retire to the adjacent café for lunch: a special 2 course set menu for
$28/head. You may like to order and pay for sweets after. The café
has a BYO licence (just $1/bottle for us) or buy your soft drinks,
juices etc there. After the luncheon and prize giving you may like to
take a tour around the historic house; cost is $5/person. Contact the
Events Officer to join us: 9294 1259, 0438915832, or
ned.morris@hotmail.com by 20/8/11. See menu details later inside
then phone me now if you have not booked. So far we have: Morris

perpetual trophy for the Rileys that covered the longest distance
in the year.

CHITTERING VALLEY PIE CHASE: Spring will have sprung and
Karin & John Lambie have come up with a run through this delightful
area featuring the famous Bindoon Bakery and its delicious pies. The
(MG) TC Owner?s Club and the Pre-war Sports Car Club will also be
coming along. We meet at 10am at Bullsbrook; coming from the
south, drive through the little town and turn right into Chittering Road,
turn right immediately and meet at the little park. There is a public
toilet there. We depart at 10.30am up Chittering Road to the
Lambie?s Marbling Brook Farm at 1724 Chittering Road. It?s on the
right hand side, not far past the Chittering Valley Road intersection,
10.8 miles (17.24 km) from Bullsbrook. Park in “the paddock”. There
will be too many for café Lambie so if you want a coffee or tea bring a
thermos or grab one at Muzz-Buzz back in Bullsbrook. After a natter
we leave in convoy at 11.45am, off to the Bindoon Pie Shop; we
should be there c12.30pm. Try the special “Riley Pie”. Bring other
food and drinks to eat outside or in your car if you wish. After lunch
you might like to “party-on”! Although the usual Valley Festival “Hub”
at the Village Green has been canned all wineries still have special
events and entertainment organised. Briery Estate is close and recommended; they have live music, art etc so we plan to go there.
Christos Valley Estate (formerly Hartley Estate) has Greek music,
dancing and food on and probably plate smashing, so that sounds
the go for us if we want to carry on. It?s also recommended and
Kyotmunga Winery is opposite. Make your way home whenever you
want. There may be a gathering to end it all at Lambie?s farm if they
have any energy left.

Koolan Races

Kulin Bush Races are on again and Dom is organizing the
contingent.

We are invited to the Dardenup Bull & Barrel festival.

There will be a
classic car display by members of the South West Veteran Car Club.,
We are invited to display our cars. The monthly meeting will be at
Ron and Kerry Leggerini’s home on the Sunday. See
www.bullandbarrel.net.au Call Ron on 9731 1929 for more details.

BRITISH AUTO CLASSIC

at Waroona Town Oval. This is a popular
event and we often see members from the SW there. Our new
Secretary Ivan Botica and Mourveen are conveniently moving to
Oakford at the southern end of Tonkin Hwy. and have invited us to
meet there first for a quick breakfast and coffee. This sounds better
than the usual bitumen car park. We have to be in the oval at
Waroona before 10am to get in, so it will be an early start. More
details next month.

BODDINGTON RODEO & GOLDMINE TOUR.

Street Parade starts at 9.30am. If your Riley joins this you get free entry. In the morning there are: Art & Craft Exhibition, Food/Drink & Variety Stalls,
Elimination Heats at the Rodeo, Hash House Harriers “Running of the Bulls”. In the afternoon: Dragon Boat Racing on the Hotham River, Grand Opening of the Rodeo 1pm & Events 1.30 –5pm, then non-stop live Country & Western Music 5pm to midnight and a Cabaret. There is the option of taking a shuttle bus to the Gold Mine Tour starting about 11am (Steve Higgins? workplace). Note: this is a
Saturday event. (Numbers attending are required by the end of September to arrange parking for the display and tickets for the mine tour. I will give the organisers the numbers on 28th September. Steve)

CLUB CHRISTMAS PARTY.

We will meet again for the ever popular Picton-Warlow?s garden bbq party by the pool. That?s 11 a.m. at “Strathearn”, 16 Kings Park Avenue, Crawley – between Mount?s Bay Road & Park Avenue. (Note: this is NOT Kings Park ROAD, West Perth!! It?s on the other side of the park). Bring something to bbq, salads and drinks; also bathers if you want. The December meeting
will precede the party.

BBQ BREAKFAST ON SWAN

at Peppy Grove, date to be set.
