Capricornia Inauguration
10 May 2025
We have another new VIEW Club! Number 2 for 2025!
On Saturday 10 May, over 30 women and guests celebrated the opening of Capricornia VIEW Club (QLD) in Rockhampton.
The theme was "Beef to the Beach" to acknowledge the region as the beef capital of Australia, surrounded by the coastal areas of Yeppoon, Zilzie and Emu Park. Rockhampton is located just north of the Tropic of Capricorn, hence the beautiful name Capricornia VIEW Club!
Capricornia VIEW Club will be led by President Sharon Collins who expressed how excited she is to be leading a young, vibrant and energetic committee and members, who were all full of pride to receive their VIEW badges and charter.
In the spirit of VIEW, a raffle was held with $500 raised on the day!
The day was supported by the local Smith Family Team, Dan Smith, (who spoke on behalf of TSF QLD), Karen Mulligan and Andrea Bottomley, as well as Michelle Landry, Federal Member for Capricornia and local Councillor Shane Latcham.
Visiting VIEW members included VIEW National President, Elizabeth Birch, VIEW National Manager, Maryanne Maher, National Councillor Jean Jennings and Zone Councillors Vonda Cannock and Christine Foster.
Members from Fraser Coast, Hervey Bay, Mackay and Bundaberg VIEW clubs travelled to join in the celebrations with the 28 inaugural members.
Many congratulations to everyone involved in the establishment of the club, especially the VIEW QLD Development team, Jan, Coleen and Faye.
