Greensborough Evening VIEW Club
About
Greensborough Evening VIEW Club was established in 1993.
Our members are offered the opportunity to enjoy various activities - monthly morning teas, knitting and scrabble groups, a yearly weekend away, day outings and games nights.
Best of all, we offer the opportunity to meet new friends while sharing a two course meal and listening to a guest speaker.
Our six Learning for Life students are the major focus of our fundraising.
We are dedicated to making a difference, along with The Smith Family to disadvantaged children.
If you would like to join us for dinner one evening, we would love to hear from you.
