RACV Australia Day Picnic and Federation Vehicle Display
Where: Melbourne
Start time: 26 January 2011, 10:00 am
End time: 26 January 2011, 4:00 pm
A real favourite with families, the Kings Domain Gardens will feature multi-instrumentalist James Morrison and the famous Federation Vehicle Display, with more than 500 veteran, vintage and classic vehicles and entertainment, free activities and scrumptious food stalls.
Celebrate RACV’s involvement within the Victorian community, 100 years of the Chevrolet motorcar and 56 years of the Vintage and Veteran Vehicle Club along with special displays, activities, Ticklish Allsorts, free RACV giveaways – and of course a birthday cake! Wave off the vehicles as they leave the gardens at 3:30pm.
See the RACV / AFA sanctioned Fly ball Competition. Join in at the activity arena, learn to play soccer for under 5yrs with soccer time kids, practice tai chi, make your own bird feeder to take home with you, check your blood pressure with the Royal District Nursing Service, play mini golf, mini basketball, bocce, chess with the master, learn to lace, play hockey, play fencing, join in the many interactive activities with Guides Victoria and Scouts Australia, draw your vision of Australia, learn all about the State Emergency Service and the Australian Air Force Cadets, handle the baby animals, paint your boomerang, learn about alpacas, learn to relax through laughter, have a massage, an Alexander Technique lesson, a spinal check, and visit the RACV Community Partners' Area for lots of fun, games and give-aways, including Independence Australia's wheelchair challenge. Do some planting with Greening Australia, meet Captain Starlight, try vision simulation goggles with Guide Dogs Victoria, slop on sunscreen with the Cancer Council of Victoria and have fun with Arts Centre’s kids program.
Help us green this event – bring your own water bottle and refill at the hydration station provided. By re-filling your own water bottles, we can reduce the numbers of bottled water used at this event.
Proudly supported by RACV in conjunction with the Federation of Veteran, Vintage and Classic Vehicle Clubs.
