OGG ACT BRANCH DINNER
OGG SA BRANCH DINNER
OGG MOTORING EVENT
More than 40 guests attended an ACT Branch Dinner at the Ivy Café in Canberra on Saturday 8 September organised by ACT Secretary, Claire Sullivan (GA’93), and ACT President, Peter Crowley (Ge’60). OGGs ranged in age from 2005 leavers Bobbie Adams (Ga’05) and Benjamin Adams (M’05) to the most senior attendee, retired diplomat Michael Wilson (FB’46).
More than 80 Old Geelong Grammarians, current and past parents attended the OGG South Australian Branch Dinner in Adelaide on Friday 19 October. A broad range of age groups was represented, from 83-year-old Edward Wright (Cu’47) to more recent leavers, including Rosie McBain (Ga’06) and Merinda Edwards (Ga’05). It was also lovely to see so many family groups attending the dinner together. Congratulations to SA President, Bill Seppelt (M’64), and Secretary, Ruth Vagnarelli (Hickinbotham, Cl’82), for a wonderful evening.
The classic Australian utility took centre stage at the 2nd annual Old Geelong Grammarians Motoring Event on Saturday 10 November. The ute was the feature vehicle but it was ultimately upstaged by the immaculate red 1989 Porsche 944 S2 Cabriolet driven by Bruce Ellis (Cu’58) and navigated by Bill Metcalf, which was the only vehicle to navigate from South Yarra to Corio whilst completing a quiz and matching a list of quotes with their author. Thanks go to David Henry (FB’70) for organising another successful event.
