Grove’s stunning venue By Mark Heenan Wider business community leaders and local traders visited the stunning new Ocean Grove Surf Beach Complex for the Geelong Chamber of Commerce networking event on Thursday 17 October. Several hundred people turned out for the popular monthly Chamber After 5, which overlooked the picturesque coastal surrounds at Ocean Grove main beach. The joint location at the Ocean Grove Surf Life Saving Club and The Dunes Cafe, which organised catering on the night, were venue hosts. Locals from the Ocean Grove Business Association including Driftwood Cafe and Roche Accounting were present. Other local business identities from Ocean Grove Chalet and community leaders from Ocean Grove SLSC and a_guide_to_oceangrove attended. Geelong Chamber of Commerce chief executive officer Ben Flynn, an Ocean Grove resident, said it was a privilege to bring its chamber monthly event to a marquee location on the Bellarine. "This is a fantastic facility," Mr Flynn said of the Ocean Grove Surf Beach Complex which recently opened. "It just made sense to be to showcase the beautiful facility to the business community. "Ocean Grove deserves something amazing, this is going to be the centre of the community effectively." Bellarine Ward councillor Trent Sullivan spoke in high regard to host a major wider Geelong network event at the re-developed Ocean Grove Surf Beach Complex. "What a wonderful venue to have it down at Ocean Grove - this new venue is fantastic," Cr Sullivan said. "Well worth the build, well worth the money spent."
