Singing Sixties Sensations
Over the past three week’s the Riverine Club held a cabaret show in collaboration with Wagga’s School of Arts Theatre (SOAT) celebrating the iconic female vocalists of the 1960’s. The producction was directed by Lee Kennedy, who together with renowned Musical Director Nicky Rosengren selected a cast of talented vocalists to represent several the 60’s female stars. They include Dusty Springfield, Cilla Black, Sandy Shaw to mention just a few. These well remembered songs had the audience singing along to hits such as You Don’t Have to say You Love me, Downtown, Son of a Preacher Man, and Only Want to be with You. Pastorale provided the 3-course menu for the event making this show a quality presentation in every way.

The Story of "The Country Lunch" - Friday 7th September 2022
Country folk love to gather! Last Friday our Club 'sung' with 147 people gathering inside due to the inclement weather. Table captains did a marvellous job of bringing so many people from far and wide. Thank you Bernard Whyte, Ian Horsley, Simon Playfair, Ian Hope, Judy Grant, Mary and Glen Lucas, Annette and David Lamont, Mary-Helen Martens, Robyn Gooden, Joyce Barrett and Richard Pottie.
The day started at 11:30 with bubbles and joyous greetings between people who had obviously not seen one another for quite a time. It took some time to seat the 147 people for lunch, but eventually the gathering sat and enjoyed an afternoon of food and wine.
Table Captains, driven by Susan Pottie, managed to sell several hundred raffle tickets, raising $2,300 for a much needed defibrillator at the Club! Caroline Buchan was the grateful winner of a bottle of Penfold's Grange Hermitage.
Special thanks must go to Jenni Stephenson for her picking of fresh flowers from her garden and setting up the beautiful arrangements. Photos of the guests are scarce, but the below photos show off the beauty of the Club on the day of The Country Lunch

The Riverine Club Ball - Saturday 20th August 2022
The Riverine Club looked marvellous on Saturday 20th August where we hosted The Riverine Club Ball. It was a glamorous evening enjoyed by 210 young folk who danced the night away.
