A range of activities, games, guestspeakers and demonstrations are planned for participants, along with an exciting daytime trip scheduled for later in the year.
Members are welcome to bring a friend and are asked to provide a plate of food and stay for a sociable lunch. A gold coin donation for each session and a $4 annual membership fee is payable on the day.
Companion club coordinator Danielle Williamson said anyone above the age of 30 is encouraged to attend the activities, which will be staged in a warm and friendly environment.
