Fund Raising Sausage Sizzle - Saturday, 25 Sep 21

Our volunteers at a Mitre 10 Sausage Sizzle
This coming Saturday we are running another sausage sizzle at Mitre 10, Nuriootpa. It's strictly speaking not just a sausage sizzle as we will have bacon and egg sandwiches as well as sausages.

These tend to be very popular, so if you are planning a trip to Mitre 10 or simply want to drop in for breakfast, be early so as not to be disappointed.

Last sausage sizzle, we had several people from nearby offices call in for a feed as they said they could smell the cooking and it was too good to miss.

We'll also have a range of soft drinks.

We look forward to seeing you at our Sausage Sizzle and as always, greatly appreciate Mitre 10 for supporting our fund-raising efforts.

The Hut Closed Friday, 17 SEP 21

As there will be numerous regular attendees absent, including anyone to open the Hut or authorised to serve behind the bar, it’s unfortunate that we will not be able to open The Hut next Friday evening.

The following Friday will be a meal night and is expected to go ahead as scheduled.

As always, we will look forward to seeing you when next we open.

Saluting their Service Exhibition

The Barossa Regional Gallery will be hosting an exhibition of photographs and oral history stories from military veterans who served in all theatres of war from and including WWII and their widows/widowers.

This exhibition arranged by The Emu Tree's, Christian Teusner appeared during SALA last year and this year and was highly popular. Apart from a huge collection of photographs of those who served, the oral histories may be listened to on-site or at any other time online here.

The exhibition will be held from Saturday, 18 September 2021 daily until Sunday, 26 September 2021 between 11 am and 3 pm on all days.

Funding for the exhibition was provided to our Sub-Branch by the Department of Veteran's Affairs and your committee partnered with The Emu Tree to undertake the project on our behalf. 

It's been very successful with dozens of oral histories recorded and hundreds of original photographs provided by veterans and their families.

It's a must-see, so tell your friends and family and visit during the above times.

The Military Shop that incorporates the Navy, Army and Airforce Shops is offering excellent discounts as I write and has offered to provide our club with a commission for any sales made from our site using this link.

The link also appears on the right-hand side of this site. 

There are some very generous discounts being offered at present because of the pandemic disruptions. It's a good time to update your kit of memorabilia, add some new gear, or to arrange some presents for family and friends. Remember, if you buy, please do so through one of our links.
