Meet The Federal Candidates Luncheon
The Committee for Mornington Peninsula is pleased to invite you to join us at our Meet The Federal Candidates Luncheon at the Mornington Racecourse, hosted by Mr Barrie Cassidy.
With the very real social and economic challenges our community faces, this is a unique opportunity to hear views for the region from upcoming election candidates, and network with community peers.
