We have a great location for the District dinner in Melbourne. We are at the Rendezvous Hotel, 328 Finders Street, Melbourne on Saturday, May 27th. Cash bar opens at 5:30pm and dinner is served at 6:15pm. It is a 3-course dinner with a choice of entree on the registration form. Entrees are Spring Creek Barramundi (Asian seabass); Cape Grim Beef Tenderloin (Gluten free) or Vegan entree. The cost is $72 per person. More than it has been in the past but dining out in Melbourne is expensive. The link to register is below. If you have a guest that is not a Rotarian, please choose their entree also.
Information is also on the District website.
Cut off is May 10th. The Restaurant must have the guarantees by the 11th.
