Winnipeg Fundraiser for the Australian Bushfires — We Are SOLD OUT!
THANK YOU, Winnipeg, for your generous support of our bushfires fundraiser.
We are SOLD OUT, and tickets will NOT be available at the door.
If you would still like to help, we are accepting donations. Any amount is welcome, but donations of $20 or more will get a tax receipt from the Canadian Red Cross for monies sent to the Australian Red Cross Disaster and Relief Recovery Fund. To make a donation, contact Peter Debenham at 204-955-0393.
The devastating bushfires in Australia are continuing to take an almost unimaginable toll on that country. At least 34 people have died, livelihoods have been lost, countless native animals and livestock populations have been decimated, and millions of hectares of land have been burned beyond recognition.

Welcome!
G’day and Kia ora to all Kiwis and Aussies
in Manitoba and beyond!
Welcome to the Down Under Club of Winnipeg. We’re a social club based far, far from our original homes and hold regular events for members and guests. We also produce a monthly newsletter about connections in our new community and all things happening down under. Go on, explore our site and consider joining our group. Hooroo, mates!
Welcome to our Annual General Meeting!
“Welcome!” is exactly what we will say when you join us on November 30 at 7:00 pm for our annual general meeting.
It will be held at the Scandinavian Cultural Centre, 764 Erin St, and we are hoping for a good turnout of members.
The AGM is a fantastic opportunity to:
- hear all about our events in the past year,
- find out what’s ahead next year,
- offer suggestions for Club activities,
- put your name forward for the new executive,
- vote in the new executive,
- catch up with fellow members,
- participate in some lively conversation, and
- enjoy snacks and drinks from the bar.
But the most important reason to attend the AGM is to meet those on the executive who have worked tirelessly to make this Club what it is. They put in many hours to organise events, put together and design and mail out the newsletter, manage dues paid and balance the budget, keep track of members, and do whatever else is necessary to ensure the DUCW remains a vibrant and welcoming organisation for all of us.
So make a point to drop in. Even if you don’t want to be on the executive, this is your opportunity to support those who do and to be part of our future.
