Kenmore VIEW Club
About
The Kenmore VIEW Club supports disadvantaged students and their families because all young people are entitled to a good education.
Formed in 1990, the club currently sponsors ten Learning for Life students. Although fund raising is our main goal, activities are organised to also enhance the lives of our own members.
There are social networking groups that meet at least monthly. Our club has several interest groups including two book clubs, walking, gardening,dining out groups plus a walking group, a Mahjong group and a movie group.
Luncheon meetings held monthly include guest speakers as well as lucky door prizes, raffles, book exchange, and at times a trading table.
New members are most welcome.

2019 July - 29th Birthday
Kenmore VIEW Club celebrated its 29th birthday in July with a black and white theme.
More than 50 members, guests, visitors and friends joined in to celebrate a day of friendship and fun with the Moggill Singers from the QCWA Moggill Branch to entertain us. State member for Moggill, Dr Christian Rowan, joined us along with National Councillor QA, Lyn Masters.
Apart from lots of lucky door and raffle prizes we drew our Bunnings Barbecue raffle, the prizes all being won by our members. Thank you to the Committee who worked so hard to put this all together and especially Anne Bamford. Twenty year pins were presented to Merrill Holbeck and Jean Clarke. Ten year pins were presented to Jennifer Croud and Margaret Skuce.
Brisbane River on MV Neptune
2019 May
A glorious, sunny and warm late Autumn day for a cruise on the Brisbane River on MV Neptune. Sixteen ladies from Kenmore VIEW Club enjoyed the changing riverfront scenery over a Devonshire morning tea. Lunch was enjoyed at the historic Breakfast Creek Hotel. After a short walk around the River back to the jetty we re-joined the MV Neptune for the return trip to Southbank. A delightful day organised by our Program Officers Paula and Judy.

Annual Fundraising
Kenmore VIEW Club held its annual fundraising afternoon tea on the last Saturday in April. A glorious sunny and warm afternoon provided the backdrop at Anne Bamford’s home for the seventh year in a row. Fine bone china, beautifully set tables complete with the menu for a sumptuous beautifully presented variety of afternoon treats completed the scene.
Guests and Members from Surfers Paradise, Redlands Evening, Chapel Hill, and Centenary VIEW Clubs attended, along with our National Councillor, Lyn Masters. VIEW friendship was in abundance and along with lovely raffle and lucky door prizes made for a very enjoyable afternoon. We raised enough funds to support another two students which was our aim.
