Kilcoy Gift – Postponed till 4th June 2022

After discussions with Con Searle the President of the Kilcoy Turf Club the gift will be postponed to Saturday 4th June “Kilcoy Cup Day”.

Modelling by the Qld Chief Health Officer team predicts Covid numbers to surge substantially in the next few weeks.

This modelling will substantially effect the success of the Australia Day event and increase risks associated for our members particularly our volunteer group.
