Australia Day (January 26th) is rapidly approaching. There are a few activities planned to help celebrate the day Capt Arthur Phillip landed at Port Jackson in 1788, lit up his barbie.. cracked open a tinnie and gave birth to the land now known as Australia.

The CAFA will not be throwing an Aussie Day event, but check and discuss on facebook and twitter for any informal gatherings.

The Aussie Consulate’s “G’Day USA Australia Day Ball” will be held on the 28th January. For registration and details visit the consulate’s events page at http://www.usa.embassy.gov.au/whwh/ChicagoEvents.html
