Our history has shown the club is a reliable provider of social support and cohesion for the community and many local and community events are held at our premises at non-commercial rates. We are an important community facility for the Mapleton/Montville region, as the club is a host for 10 groups of people in the community, on a weekly basis, as well as for ad hoc events. The Clubhouse facilities are used frequently, with about 370 people-visits each week. The groups that regularly use the clubhouse facility include:
1. Lawn bowls (4-5 days a week)
2. Gym activities (6 days a week)
3. Mah-jong group (1 day a week)
4. Craft group (1 day a week)
6. darts group (2 days a week)
7. Probus, community meetings eg MADCA (2 days a month)
8. Social groups for Friday Dinners Nights (2 evenings a month)
9. special events incl Mapleton Day, Trivia Nights, Council consultations (as organised), and
10. live music events (as organised). Also the club's facilities are club hired out for birthdays/weddings. Community gatherings are important in the business model for the Club. The Clubhouse facility is the only facility in the Mapleton/Montville area that can hold large gatherings (up to 100 people), with kitchen and bar services. Our activities are supported by strong volunteerism, as members want a friendly club that has a strong “community focus”.
