On the second night back for 2011 we celebrated Australia Day with our traditional BBQ and dance. Our thanks to the Flagstaff Venturers who supplied the meats and cooked the BBQ for us – great job as always.

The crowd looked great in Green and Gold and an assortment of other Australian colours or costumes. A few Aussie songs were thrown in the mix and Graham, dusting off the didgeridoo, rendered his version of Way Out West complete with a didge lesson for us all.

We were thrilled to welcome Lara-Mareike Jung from Germany who is travelling the world and had some time to drop in and say Guten Tag – G’day!

Thanks to all who came along and entered the spirit and to the helpers who set up the hall and cleared away.

Didgeridoo on Aussie Night

Well it was certainly an Aussie summer night as we gathered around for our BBQ and dance.  A 37 degC day but fortunately our hall airconditioning works well.

It was a great crowd and all heartily got stuck into their tucker at their tables. A big thanks to the Flagstaff Venturers who again cooked for us and used this as a fundraiser.

The hall looked great and thanks to the committee who tethered up all the Aussie animals and hung our flags. Nice to see the green and gold colour schemes and Aussie theme in your outfits too.
