Ballarat Weekend
1 February 2020 - 2 February 2020
As in previous years, this is a very low-key social event, organised by Glenn and me, and includes driving, chatting, eating and drinking (coffee of course).
We will gather from 11am on the Saturday, at the Vagg compound at 747 Midland Highway, Mount Rowan, where you will be able to have a look around the workshop and museum or just a catch-up chat. To reach Mount Rowan from Melbourne follow the Western Freeway and take the third Ballarat exit (the Midland Highway, A300), turning right towards Creswick. Then drive about 2km until you see the Peugeot flags on the left.
BYO lunch. There will be a BBQ available if you want to cook a snag or two, and there will be prizes for everyone in a free raffle. Or if you plan to have lunch on the way you should be at Mount Rowan at 1pm so you can join us for the leisurely drive, where we will be checking out a shed and ending up with a good coffee.
Dinner on Saturday evening will be at Ballarat Golf Club, which always puts on a good meal. If you wish to stay the night the Bell Tower Inn is just across the road (see below).
For the Sunday, we are planning a lovely coffee spot, a visit to the Ballarat Botanical Gardens and then finishing with lunch from which you will be able to head home. If you are planning to join us for Sunday lunch only, please let me know as we may need to provide numbers to the venue.
If needed, there will be further updates in the PCCV News emails in the week prior to the event in February.
If you plan to stay on the Saturday night, we recommend the Bell Tower Inn (within walking distance of the Golf Club) at 1845 Sturt Street, phone 5334 1600. I have reserved eight double rooms, for $135 a night, and one twin room for $150 a night under the name of Peugeot Car Club (or if that doesn’t work, try my name or the reference number 72778. When booking you will need a credit card and a mobile number. Rooms must be booked before January 8, after which I will unreserve any rooms that are left unbooked.
If you plan to take part in the dinner on the Saturday please confirm your attendance with me on 0407 271 972 or email paula.glenn@bigpond.com by Saturday 25 January 2020.
We look forward to seeing you.
