CHACA Ladies Night

The November meeting at CHACA’s Club Rooms was a very well attended and interesting evening. Our guest speaker, Loretta Smith, presented the story of Alice Anderson.
 Her book, “A Spanner in the Works”, the life story of Alice Anderson, is available on line.

 Alice Anderson was a mechanic, an inventor of the rolling under car trolley and the first owner of an all women garage. She was, “a chauffeur to the stars and a Roaring Twenties Melbourne Celebrity who met an untimely death at just 29 years of age”.

 Loretta Smith presented many photos and gave members and guests a most interesting and entertaining talk.  We had lots of yummy food for supper. Another great night at the Clubrooms.

 It was great to see all the ladies!
