This year we are pleased to have Guest Speaker, Carolyn Spooner presenting on the Smith Brothers and the Great Air Race of 1919.

Ross & Keith Macpherson Smith grew up on Mutooroo sheep station in the far north of South Australia and educated at Queens School, North Adelaide.

They were both highly decorated pilots in WW1 and when the Prime Minister of Australia, Billy Hughes, offered £10,000 to fly from London to Darwin in 30 days they were one of six entrants. Please come and hear the story of their great adventure.

Carolyn was the Curator of the ‘Heroes of the Skies’ exhibition at the State Library of SA. She is now the Community Learning Contact Librarian.

$80.00 per person including a selection from the Private Dining Menu (2 course) and initial drinks, for all participating members and partners.

Profits from the dinner will be donated to Mates in Construction.

Note: The Building Employees Redundancy Trust (BERT) Welfare Fund founded Mates in Construction (MIC) in 2008 and provides support to the Building Industry sector through its program of suicide awareness, with other initiatives that support work with mental health problems preventing them from developing.
