Armstrong Green clubhouse officially open

Armstrong Green residents sung the Cats’ theme song loudly and proudly at the opening of their new clubhouse in the lead up to Geelong’s emphatic grand final win in September.

Leading the chorus were Ian Cover and Greg Champion, best known as foundation members of the Coodabeen Champions comedic radio show.

Cover and Champion were at Armstrong Green to officially open the clubhouse, which is the jewel in the crown of the retirement village, boasting a pool, gym, bar, snooker room, hairdresser, dining room and library.

Also in attendance were RCA Villages directors and their families.

Managing director Andrew Philip welcomed the opening of the clubhouse, which will further strengthen the sense of retirement community already being fostered at Armstrong Green.

“RCA doesn’t just build villages, we build communities, much like country towns,“ Mr Philip said.

Armstrong Green is located at 722-742 Barwon Heads Road, Armstrong Creek.
