Great Lake Picnic

A well needed ‘drop of rain ‘ was long and heavy enough to prevent us going to the Epiphany Gardens for a planned run and Picnic with the Great Lake Club

But despite the weather, the day turned out to be most enjoyable.

The Clubrooms became the picnic venue and the Great Lake Club members were taken for a Tiki Tour in our cars, as the rain had settled.

We returned to be entertained by the AA65 singers ,who had an excellent repertoire of songs and the 70 of us all joined in with the well known songs (even some of the lyrics altered to a vintage car theme)

The delicious luncheon provide by the Great Lakes Club followed, and we all agreed that despite the disappointment of not being able to visit the gardens, the day was very successful.

It was agreed that we will all get together to make the Epiphany Gardens visit in the future.
