History of meeting locations
We started holding the meetings at the Spreadeagle Road, Yendon field in January
2005 after the room we were using in town became unavailable. This was adopted as
an interim measure but we soon found that attendances at the meetings increased,
so we continued holding the meetings at the field.
The winter months made some meeting nights a bit harsh weather wise so from July
2011 we began using a combination of Findlay Engineering, Field Air Offices at Ballarat
Airport and Gekko staff room. Since April 2015 we were using the Eastwood Street
Leisure Centre on a regular basis.
Then along came COVID-19 in early 2020 which prevented us using the Eastwood Street Leisure Centre during lockdown. Once restrictions were eased we began using the Golden Plains Northern Community Centre (Haddon Hall), 390 Sago Hill Road Haddon, where the indoor flying is held on the 1st & 3rd Wednesday evenings between 7-9PM.
We decided to hold the meetings at the flying field on our regular Sunday flying day, commencing July 2024, now that we have the new portable building in a usable state.
