Join us for a fun afternoon. We begin with the Melbourne Cup Sweep, watch the running of the Cup on our own televisions, return to Zoom to announce the winners and finish with some small group chats courtesy of the Zoom break-out feature.
We suggest you wear some Cup Like gear i.e. hats, gloves, scarfs, bow ties/smart ties, smart shirts etc create the atmosphere. Have a pencil and paper handy to record your horse.
Convenors Brian Parkinson, Graham Cox, and Ruth Jensz

The name F.O.C.U.S. is derived from: Fellowship, Outreach, Christmanship, Understanding, Service.
F.O.C.U.S. began in 1971, initially in homes and later at Westfield Drive. Its primary purpose was a gathering for ‘young marrieds’. A more apt description of the members today would be ‘young at heart’.
The group usually meet at Westfield Drive at 7.30pm on the first Saturday of the month. We conclude our meetings with a shared supper. Activities typically include a planning BBQ, guest speakers on travel and outreach projects, a casserole dinner, sharing life stories and interests, local theatre and movie nights, games nights, a Cup Day picnic and Christmas Carol singing and entertainment at Roseville Retirement Village. Newcomers are most welcome.
