Finish the year on a roll!

Hi all,

 

This coming Sunday (30/12/2012) is not an organised bowls day but the club will open at 12:00 noon for anyone wanting to bowl. There may or may not be a bowls director attending so bowlers may have to look after themselves.

 

Be there by 12:30pm for a 1:00pm start. Green fees of $8.00 will apply.

 

Also, a reminder of Wednesday 2nd January. Usually Men's bowls, but for a few weeks it will be a mixed day. Ladies can either mix with the men or form their own teams.

 

Club will open at 12:00 noon (bar will be open), names in by 12:30 PM for a 1:00 PM start. Green fees of $8.00 will apply.

 

It will be a good chance for the Business House Bowls members to experience 21 ends instead of the usual 8 or 10 ends on Wednesday nights.

 

Regards,

 

Paul Osborne

GC SUNS to host ANZAC Day game in Mackay

 

GC SUNS to host ANZAC Day game in Mackay The Gold Coast SUNS will increase its presence in North Queensland, with the GC SUNS NEAFL team set to play a home game at Mackay's Harrup Park on ANZAC Day.   The GC SUNS will take on reigning NEAFL premiers the Brisbane Lions in Mackay's very own version of the QCLASH.   Acting GC SUNS CEO, Andrew Travis said the club was looking forward to playing in Mackay for the first time.   "We are thrilled that in partnership with AFL Queensland and the Brisbane Lions that we host a GC SUNS NEAFL home game in Mackay."   "The Gold Coast SUNS have been fortunate to receive great support from our fans in North Queensland and we are confident that this ANZAC Day match will be a huge hit for Mackay and AFL fans in region."   Travis said the GC SUNS would continue to increase its presence in North Queensland, with the team also set to play North Melbourne in a NAB Cup Match in Townsville, as well as the Round 16 match against Richmond in Cairns and the GC SUNS Community programs throughout Far North Queensland.   "We are very serious about strengthening our links with North Queensland. The region already forms part of our GC SUNS Academy zone, we have an increasing number of North Queenslanders on our list and we hope kids across the region look up to players like Jarrod Harbrow, Charlie Dixon, Zac Smith and Josh Hall."   The Harrup Park clash will be played immediately following the annual City V Country clash.   AFL Queensland CEO Michael Conlan said the match would add to what was already a major local event. "AFL has a significant connection with our armed services as a celebration of our Australian culture and has been played by our troops across the globe for over 100 years," said Conlan. "The Mackay AFL Community has created a fantastic event to honour the ANZAC tradition and we want to build on that in 2013 with the support of the Gold Coast SUNS and Brisbane Lions."   For further enquiries please contact: Stephen Wilson Media Manager Mob. 04 04 096 261 stephen.wilson@goldcoastfc.com.au

A new wet season dining menu

Wet season menu at WSC

The Whitsunday Sailing Club is introducing a new wet season dining menu for the months of December, January and February. The current menu will be 'wiped-out' and replace with limited and easy options for Monday, Tuesday and Thursday nights.  All meals will be under $20.

WSC Manager, Angela Rae says, "we have been working on creating a short and easy menu for the wet season as people's tastes and habits change.  No one wants to sit around for hours dining in the humid weather but if you don't want to cook you can pop down to the Club for a quick and easy option."

The menu will include red and white meat burgers and other salads, seafood and pasta options. There will also be meal choices for the kids. The new menu will come in to place from Monday 3 December and will be available for the whole season on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday nights. The regular bistro menu will apply on the weekends with the roast buffet still a favourite on Wednesday nights. 

The popular lunch time menu will remain with a great choice of salads and seafood.  Chef Justin Clark says, "people are enjoying the duck salad and also the raw tuna salad at the moment. We have tried to create choices which suit the climate and I think everyone is going to enjoy the change."

Just pop down to the balcony bistro at the Whitsunday Sailing Club for a cool breeze and an easy dining option over the summer months.

What are you doing for Fathers Day?

What are you doing for Fathers Day? Whether HE be your father or the father of your children, surely, in addition to showering him with gifts you would want him to enjoy a great dinner like you can experience at the Airlie Beach Bowls Club WHITEHAVEN ROOM; and you don't have to slave over a hot stove.

 

If you haven't already sampled the WHITEHAVEN ROOM ROAST DINNER, this coming Sunday, Fathers Day, is your chance. The brochure gives details of your choice of either roast lamb and gravy or corned silverside with garlic cream, served with a delicious potato bake, baked sweet potato and green peas and carrots; afterwards delight in a scrumptious steamed pudding with custard and cream.

 

Kitchen is serving from 5.30 to 7.00 PM (you don't have to book, but I advise you to be early rather than late).

Hope to see you there.
