Many of you will remember we had our first Darling Downs function locked in for this time last year. COVID unfortunately put those plans on hold.

Oakey Rep Peter Pile is now organising the Inaugural function for the Darling Downs, with a proposed outline as follows:

 Saturday  22 May 2021 – Tours and Luncheon.

• RAMS tours of its facilities for any RAQ members who would be interested.
• Australian Army Flying Museum (AAFM) could host tours, concurrent with RAMS tours.
• Inaugural RAQ-DD luncheon at a local Toowoomba establishment
• Open to RAQ Members, any serving or ex-serving members of RAEME and their partners, 

We will confirm timings and costing shortly. We've also raised an Event on the Website, so keep an eye on Friday Files and the page for all the latest details.
