If they have to drive more then 15 minutes somewhere is too far away...
things must be on your doorstep all the time
As snoops said, it's not far for people living near Frankston to travel in every week and watch their side, but melbournians can't make one trip to frankston for the family day because it's "too far".

Who are these Melbournians?
From what you're saying Frankston isn't part of Melbourne but any other suburb is.
Actually I remeber the years we hired out Luna Park, now they were great family days, and it was in St.Kilda, easily accessibloe to all and plenty of fun.

Who was the Prez?
Was it pre-RB, ie the Plympton days?
I reckon B4E might back you on this one, and might even throw in "Elsternwick Park" and an 8,000 word essay!

I wonder how much that would have cost the club. Plus how do they decide who comes in did you have to either already have a membership or buy one before going in?
Lol sorry mate, some of us are busy with work that day

It takes me a good hour to get to training at the moment, but if you make something of the afternoon it's really no big deal. If I can make it down there, it goes something like this...
2.00pm Watch the boys train
4.30pm Head to Mentone and get the best dim sims in Melb
5.30pm Eat takeaway chinese by the beach
6.30pm Head home after a good afternoon
Sure Frankston will be a bit further on the Eastlink, but I am sure I can come up with a new schedule and make something of it...

Would they be the Tai Wah Dim Sims tha you can buy uncooked and take home for steaming later?
We have always gone to Tai Wah - when we lived in Parkdale, South Oakleigh, Camberwell, Bentleigh, and now Skye.

The trip is always worth it!

My Dad and his family has been going there for 30+ years, and now my hubby and I carry on the tradition...
Getting out there, rolling your sleeves up and doing your bit..I commend you
I have been assigned my role, I will be at the cap and scarf marquee for members to collect their cap and scarf or scarf as part of their membership package.
My starting time is 9:30am...
Family Day starts at 11:00am through to 2:00pm
I hope to see some of your there.
Don't wait for the light at the end of the tunnel to appear, run down there and light the bloody thing yourself!
