2023 Annual Bottle & Collectable Show

To be held in Warrnambool’s Wannon Rooms on the weekend of February 4 and 5, the South West Region Bottle & Collectible Club will bring together fabulous private collections. On the Saturday the doors will open from 9.30am–5pm ($5 for adults and children free) and on the Sunday they’ll open from 9am–2.30pm (a gold coin donation for adults and children free).

Money raised from this two-day event will go towards the four $1,000 CoaguCheks we need for our Warrnambool District Nursing Service. Coagucheks are a user-friendly, hand-held piece of medical equipment that save ill clients having to leave their homes to make otherwise essential trips to pathology services or their GPs – up to twice/week – for an instant-result blood test. In particular, Coagucheks are used for our warfarin therapy patients.

Collectors interested in exhibiting have until January 30 to register with the club’s Rex Matthews at rex.lou@activ8.net.au while all other inquiries can be directed to Ron Cashmore on 0417 037 744 or Bruce Lowenthal on 0408 527 741.
