St Vincent’s College Hall of Fame 2023

St Vincent’s College Bendigo Past Students
65th Anniversary and Sports Hall of Fame Dinner
Saturday 20 & Sunday 21 May 2023

To celebrate our 65-Year Anniversary, we planned to hold a special celebration, showcasing and acknowledging All-Star football, cricket and athletic teams from 1955 to 1974.

There have been many hurdles to overcome, including the previously scheduled event of 16 and 17 October 2022 needing to be postponed due to the heavy rainfall that devasted parts of Victoria in the days leading up to the dinner. The committee negotiated a new date with the Bendigo Club and all details and conditions remain the same for the new date. Existing ticket holders are encouraged to confirm their attendance at the rescheduled event. A limited number of tickets remain available to purchase.

The St Vincent’s Past Students Association invites past students, partners and friends to a Reunion dinner to acknowledge the 65th Anniversary of the opening of St Vincent’s College at Junortoun, with the focus of the evening being the recognition and celebration of the College’s sporting achievements – both teams and individuals.

The Champion Football, Athletic and Cricket teams of the decades – 1950s, 1960s and 1970s – as well as elite individual achievements in Basketball, Baseball, Swimming, Tennis and Soccer achieved during the life of the College will be announced during the evening.

DATE: Saturday 20 May 2023
VENUE: The Bendigo Club, Reception Avenue, Bendigo
TIME: 5.45pm arrival for a sit-down meal at 6.30pm
COST: $50 per person for a 2-course dinner including drink on arrival
