Provisional Timetable 

Amended timetable  being developed for drivers briefing 

In October and November last year, we got absolutely smashed by the weather, like most of the state.
Fortunately we didn't go completely under water as did the worst affected clubs and communities.

But we also got smashed financially, with $$$ spent on emergency gravel roadways so the Victorian Country Series could go ahead. This was extremely important when the club hadn't had a major event for 3 long years; cancelling was not an option for the health of the club and its members.

So, an amazing amount of work was put in by the club in the 6 weeks leading up to the event for this to happen.
In 2023, Community Bank Buninyong have supported our club with a Community Investment Grant that makes a huge difference to the expenses from extreme weather.

The roadways and pathways will also benefit the club for future events and construction into the future.
Thankyou Community Bank Buninyong
