The Club Walk - Humour is the heart of Russell
Friday 11th October
An introduction to the heart of the Russell community, walk between the clubs, stopping for a drink and some fascinating stories.
- The Russell Boating Club, sitting right on the water’s edge, threatening to float away with the sea level rising.
- The Swordfish Club located upstairs on the waterfront which is the oldest game fishing club in New Zealand is a must-do when you visit the Bay of Islands.
- The RSA is full of its own history of fighting for survival.
- The Bowling Club which is an integral part of the community. Take in the photographic history and hear the stories behind the memorabilia which helps keep our town alive.
Once you have visited each club and appraised each menu you can return for dinner and a cosy night in with the locals.
