A Brief History of Club Waimea

The idea of Club Waimea was born out of local Richmond people seeking a place with a friendly, sociable and community minded atmosphere that was able to offer more than just a Pub. The first meeting was held at the Richmond Town Hall with approximately 35 people attending. This meeting was met with much enthusiam and it was here that the inital processes were put into place to create what we now know as Club Waimea.
