WELCOME TO THE ADELAIDE CLUB
The Adelaide Club was founded in 1863. The land on North Terrace in which the Club House stands was bought in the same year and building work rapidly proceeded, the Club House being, it seems, occupied by the end of 1864. The main structure fronting North Terrace remains virtually unaltered but in 1890 there was significant rebuilding at the rear of the premises. In 1963, the Annexe was opened on the top floor for mixed dining and in recent years there has been much refurbishment. A bar has been provided on the ground floor and bedroom accommodation brought up to standards appropriate for mixed use.
Membership
A person should be invited to stand for election. The Proposer and Seconder should have known the candidate for some years and must vouch for the candidate’s fitness for Membership and that he would be supported in a ballot by the general Membership.
