Kiacatoo Hall is a great gathering place. Once the Hall was decorated it was time for some fun, tennis was played, fishing was a huge highlight. The Farm Chapel is always a popular outing returning back to camp past the Kiacatoo Weir and The Goobothery Monument/ Kings Grave.
On Wednesday 40 Club members made their way to The Royal Hotel Euabalong for lunch and an interesting talk by two backpackers from Wales, who have been 15 months working their way around Australia.
The Biggest Morning Tea/Lunch was held on Friday the 25th, it was a huge success attracting more than 70 people, it was great to see locals from the farming district, Condobolin, Kiacatoo and Forbes making the day trip to join us.
There were quizzes, jokes, poems, skits and 100 raffle prizes, while being serenaded by The Lachlan Valley Very Little Big Band.
The rally concluded on Saturday with members making their way in different directions. The next rally is to Hawks Nest in June.
Thank you to Forbes, Condobolin/Euabalong for your hospitality, displaying our posters, donations and attending The Biggest Morning Tea raising over $1600. The Lachlan Valley Caravan Club made a donation over $400 to the Kiacatoo Progress group.
