Unfortunately, the July Members gathering has been cancelled due to the extension of Sydney's stay at home orders Featuring Wendy Swingburn of the Royal Flying Doctor Service
Wendy Swinburn is a volunteer with RFDS and will be talking about the vision and energy of the “Man on the Twenty Dollar Note”, Reverend John Flynn.
It is a history, including tales of hardship and heroism, of how it all began when transport and communications in the inland were in short supply. The RFDS has grown from one aircraft in 1928 to a fleet today of 77 nationwide with a team of dedicated doctors and nurses, pilots and flight support staff.
Today the RFDS provides both emergency and primary medical care in a very different world to 1928 but one where the needs of the inland remain just as challenging.
What do we do today? How do we fund what we do? What lies ahead for the future?
Please join us on Tuesday 13th July to hear this very interesting presentation.
Members Gatherings
Monthly Gatherings are open to all members and visitors. They are held on the second Tuesday of each month at 7.45pm at Strathfield Golf Club in Strathfield NSW. At these gatherings you’ll be able to catch up with the latest happenings in the Club as well as enjoy a social evening with other members – we’ll usually see upwards of 100 members at a gathering. A guest speaker is often invited to present a topic of interest. Arrive early, enjoy a delicious meal at discounted MG Car Club Sydney rates, have a drink or a cappuccino at the bar and meet up with old (and young) mates. We also take this opportunity to offer our quality regalia products for sale, and provide access to the Club’s library of books and videos.
