GIAV Golf Day, Dinner and Tour – Sponsored by GrainCorp

Wednesday 13 March 2024

The GIAV Golf Day and Dinner has been a premier event on the GIAV calendar for many years. Once again we thank our sponsor GrainCorp, for their on-going support for our Golf Day. Combined with the dinner, at the beautifully refurbished heritage space at The Goods Shed, the format this year encouraged a relaxed environment for networking with members and guests from the grain industry.

The dinner venue The Goods Shed is located opposite the Ballarat Railway Station and the accommodation rooms at the Quest Ballarat Station making for a convenient train destination for those attending the dinner and the complimentary tour of the Unigrain plant at Smeaton at 9:30 the next morning Thursday March 14.

An optional tour of Unigrain’s new oat milk production plant and mills was open for all at 9:30 on Thursday March 14 at 3720 Creswick / Newstead Rd, Smeaton, Victoria
