Enjoy drinks and a meal with likeminded people

Given this is a social networking group intended to help locals make connections, we invite attendees to arrive by 6:30pm to order their drinks or meals before the talk, which begins at 7:00 pm and is followed by a Q&A which runs to 8:00pm. The venue for Ballarat Green Drinks is the Bunch of Grapes Hotel, 401 Pleasant St South, Redan, Ballarat.
