March 15th saw our first Saturday run with 24 members and guests attending the run and lunch at the Mount Compass Golf course.
A very special thank you to Harley Cooke for organising the run. Harley was unable to attend the event as he had a previous engagement with the F1 in Melbourne but still went out of his way to create an interesting day for those that attended.
It was an extremely hot day peaking at 40˚C, however the scenery driving through the heart of the Fleurieu Peninsula made it all worthwhile.
This is a special part of the Adelaide Hills connecting many of the seaside towns along the coast and peninsula.
Lunch was a casual affair with magnificent views overlooking the course which has been listed a number of times in the top 100 golf courses in Australia.
Member Tom Hutchinson presented us with a detailed rendition of local history as his family has been entrenched in the area for numerous generations. It was an informative and sometimes humorous narrative which had everyone on the edge of their seats.
