About us
The Zonta Club of Paradise Point Inc, one of two clubs on the Gold Coast, was formed in June 1997. Zonta Paradise Point is dedicated to eradicating violence against women and girls while actively engaged in a multitude of service projects. The club meets on the third Tuesday of each month at Labrador Tigers AFL Sports Club for a 6.30pm meeting including a two course dinner. The club extends a warm welcome to new members.
The Gold Coast is known for its magnificent surfing beaches and is only about a sixty minute drive from Brisbane, the capital of Queensland.
