Magpie Junction Social Club
The Magpie Junction Social Club was formed by patrons of the Junction Hotel to provide social occasions for members and the general public and to raise funds for the community.
Practically no month passes without some activity being held to celebrate or commemorate an occasion. Functions in the past include:
- A day at the Clare races
- Christmas Party
- Progressive dinner
- Easter egg hunt for children
- ...and many more occassions
To recognise our older community members a Christmas luncheon prepared and served by members of the social club is offered to people over the age of 70 and their partners.
Upcoming functions during 2009 include:
- Bingo evening
- A rump and red night
- and bussing off to Port Pirie to go 10 pin bowling.
During the several years the social club has been operating thousands of dollars in donations have been given to both local and worthy charities and there is a bias towards those assisting children. Recipients include the Brinkworth Preschool, the Gladstone Appeal, Brinkworth Koolunga Cricket juniors, the Variety Bash and Angel Flight.
Every Friday evening there is a members draw at approximately 7.30 pm in the bar of the hotel. Anyone wishing to enquire about membership would find this a fine time to get information!
