Wine Tasting Evening
Wednesday, 27 August, 7:30pm,
in the
clubroom.
This is a chance to select some reds and some whites for the
Bushies very own wine label. Alas, spittoons will not be
provided, but we will have cheese on hand to clear the furry
bits on your teeth. Our choice of wines will be on sale at
our social night on 17 September.
Lecture on the Southern Sky
Wednesday, 3 September, 8:00pm, in the
clubroom.
Dr Keith
Thompson is a professor of physics, formerly of Manchester and
Monash universities. He will discuss Venus both in the
evening and morning skies, viewing the stars with binoculars,
and recognising constellations. All of which should make
us knowledgeable campers. No need to book, but please
arrive promptly. (Keith is also a member of the Victorian
Welsh Choir, so is multi-talented.)
Please contact Susan Maughan, Social Secretary,
should you want to contribute to her “lecture series”.
Slide Show and Talk -
Paradise Lost
Wednesday, 17 September, 8:00pm,

Stretching like a string of pearls in a
beautiful blue sea, Flinders

islands situated in the eastern Bass strain between
Tasmania
and mainland Victoria.
Flinders
Island
is a largely undiscovered paradise for bush walkers, bird
watchers and historians.
This presentation will introduce you to the
beauty of the island and it’s unique walks from the heights of
Mt Strezelecki to rock hopping over red granite boulders to find
your own Killiecrankie ‘diamonds’.
