October 2020 will be the 117th anniversary of our Clubs formation, making us the oldest club in the Gippsland Croquet Association.

Drouin Croquet Club has been a place where people have supported one another through good times and bad times. We formed just two years after Australia became an independent nation (can you imagine what THOSE conversations were like around the courts and club-room?!). Our members would have cared for each other as sons and daughters left for war, and would have joyously celebrated together if they returned. The coronation of kings and queens would have been talked about with excitement, as would have been the births of royal heirs, just as we are talking about the birth of the newest one in 2018.

Sunday 9th FEBRUARY 2020 our Annual Fici Folia Fun Day was a CHARITY DAY and was played in very windy conditions, but it did not dampen the spirit of those who took part. The theme for the day was RED and players got into the spirit of things and looked resplendent wearing something red. Thank you to our 9 visitors from Maffra, Traralgon, Wonthaggi & Morwell. President Kelvin announced that a total of $485 was in the "kitty" resulting from entry fees, a book stall, a special effort & fines for hitting the centre peg. He also announced that the Drouin Club would "toss in" another $100 making a total of $585 which has been posted off to BlazeAID.

Our club has had success in receiving a grant through the Baw Baw Shire Smarty Grants Scheme to enable the installation of Solar Panels. THANK YOU Baw Baw Shire council.

We acknowledge gratefully the 2019 community grant received in May,from Drouin & Dist. Community Bank which will enable the club to purchase a Marquee & Banners with Club logo on them. Thank You Drouin & District Community Bank for supporting the Drouin Croquet Club.
