Geelong and District Historical Association

The Geelong and District Historical Association (GDHA) is an umbrella association for the historical organisations within the region.  These include Historical Societies, Family History Groups, Museums and similar historical and heritage organisations.  It is NOT an association for enquiries about research in the area.

Purpose

The purpose of the Association is to be an information network for its member organisations.  Topics of interest and ideas can be discussed at our quarterly meetings, via our newsletter or through our Mailing List.

Our banner tells our story ...

Region GDHAMapThere are no defined boundaries but GDHA generally covers the area east and south of the Western Victorian Association of Historical Societies (WVAHS) and the Central Highlands Historical Association (CHHA)
Meetings

The Geelong & District Historical Association meets three times a year on a Saturday - meetings are hosted by member organisations ensuring that groups get a chance to have a "local" meeting.  Meetings are held in May, August and November each year, avoiding the bushfire season in February. See calendar for details.

Calendar The Association maintains a central calendar to notify their groups of coming events and enable groups within the region to plan ahead without clashing with existing events.  To have your (member) organisation's special event(s) added to the calendar, please This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
