Geelong Bottle Collectables Club Meeting
Meeting time & venue: Monday 22nd August. 7.30 pm for an 8pm start. Upstairs, Barwon River Pavilion. under the James Harrison Bridge, near corner Barrabool Road & High Street, Belmont.
Here we are again, 5 Mondays in the month so don’t come on the 29th!
(We meet on the 4th Monday NOT Last Monday)
And in 9 WEEKS TIME we will be doing our preliminary (Thursday afternoon) setting up at the Showgrounds and into it all from the Friday morning.
However I must remind myself and you all that Geelong Bottle and Collectables Club will continue after the National. Your Committee is asking you to consider what do we want to happen on the social calendar? Already we are planning an extra BBQ at Graham Blake’s vineyard on a Saturday afternoon late February or early March. We want to know what else our members want to happen. Bus Trip? Club Dig? other ideas?
The October 24th Meeting will be a mini celebration of the show and November 28th our now “Traditional” BBQ at David and Hany’s.
National: How can you help?

We will ramp up our press and media editorial campaign but if you can get an article in any publication or online network please do and/or call on David, Cam or Paul for help.
DUTY ROSTERS watch out for door and security rosters and fill in whatever shifts you can. Set up and knock down helpers needed as well.
The BBQs are filling the budget gap in nicely thanks to Allan and Paul and our regular team of helpers
so a lot less stress here
