WINERY WALKABOUT WEEKEND
The Rotary Club of Rutherglen has its own special activities during the weekend...
Country Fair
Forming a part of the popular Winery Walkabout event, the Country Fair is held on the Sunday of the Queen’s birthday long
weekend from 9am to 4pm. Come along and grab a bargain from around 300 stallholders. Produce and craft stalls, an animal
nursery, a variety of food stalls, buskers and music make for a carnival atmosphere to be enjoyed by the whole family. Stretching
the length of Main Street, the Fair turns our small town of Rutherglen into a bustling place to be during the Winery Walkabout
weekend.
Free entry competitions include Barrel Rolling at 11am, where all competitors receive a complementary bottle of wine, courtesy of
the Winemakers of Rutherglen, and the Infamous Grape Stomp commencing at 1pm.
Something for every member of the family

Hole in One Golf
For the whole weekend, the club runs the hole in one golf tournament at Stanton and Killeen’s winery. This is a fun event where all
budding golfers have a bucket of golf balls and try to get one in the hole about 100 metres away. The major prize is a barrel of Stanton
and Killeens muscat - a very sweet drop.
