This year a Reunion of the descendants of Edward George Hickson and Lucy Mary Ann Aylett will be held at the Toolleen Comnmunity Centre, Toolleen, Victoria, Australia on Saturday 13th October.
Planning is already underway, having begun with a well attended meeting at Ron and Alma Hickson's home in Strathdale, Bendigo. A delicious afternoon followed the planning discussions.

The planning committee welcomes suggestions via email prior to our next meeting which will be held in June 2012.
