News from Canberra Circle’s 331 & 340…<br />
A JOINT WEEKEND AT BATHURST…<br />
Group at Abercrombie House<br />
Brothers and wives <strong>of</strong> the two Canberra Circles (331 and 340) visited the regional city <strong>of</strong> Bathurst over<br />
the weekend 13-15 April. Both Circles have developed a tradition to have a joint weekend away once a<br />
year to develop our friendships and foster our fraternal love. The historic inland city <strong>of</strong> Bathurst (est<br />
1815) was the choice this year. Under the guidance <strong>of</strong> Bro Paul Scholtens (340), the program <strong>of</strong><br />
activity included such highlights as:<br />
• A tour <strong>of</strong> the old cathedral <strong>of</strong> St Michael and St John, followed by Mass<br />
• Dinner with Bishop Michael McKenna on Saturday night and some singing entertainment by<br />
Bro Phil Murray (331)<br />
• Breakfast and tour <strong>of</strong> Abercrombie House on Sunday, followed by<br />
• Tour <strong>of</strong> Ben Chifley’s home (<strong>Australia</strong>’s post war prime minister), St Stanislaus’ Catholic Boys<br />
College and the famed Mt Panorama Car racing circuit<br />
• Mt Piper power station on Monday completed the program.<br />
The party comprised some 35 brothers and wives who travelled to Bathurst by car though the regional<br />
towns <strong>of</strong> Cowra and Carcoar and home via Oberon and Goulburn. The weather was fantastically<br />
autumn and the company exceptionally fraternal. /Brother George Kazs<br />
