Reunions in the Brisbane area

next

If anyone wishes to organise a reunion in Brisbane please use the EVENTS link in the ALSFITT FaceBook page or you can contact the and I will advertise it for you.

It is easy to do, all that is necessary for anyone wishing to organise a reunion is to; find a venue, preferably where drinks & food can be purchased without having to cater for it, which has a reasonable central location, that public transport be accessible, and then just pick the date and time.

One other thing to consider is that if planned during the holiday season, it may be difficult for people to get accommodation & travel.
