History of the Adelaide Hills Club Inc

Dr Heide Taylor arranged several meetings with a number of professional women in the Hills area in June 1987 with a view to founding a new Club.

The Charter Dinner of the Zonta Club of the Adelaide Hills held at Mt Lofty Golf Club in October 1987 was attended by 34 Charter members. Elected at that meeting was the first President, Dr. Joy O'Hazy and Vice President, Pat Mudge.
