President's Report

Picture

Tony Coote Vice President                                                        
 
 
Welcome to the newsletter for June 2017.  I’m steering the ship while Ian and Jeanette are travelling the world.

Thank goodness we finally have all the administrative “stuff” behind us, and can now fully focus on fun, friendship and fellowship.  At our meeting in June, I will have the pleasure of inducting 7 new members, which will take our total membership back up to 111.

Activities are really gaining momentum with 5 new groups starting out. Photography under Bain Shenstone’s leadership with 12 people attending the kick-off meeting. Doug Matthews set up the first Ten Pin Bowling outing and 5 of us went along for a great afternoon, with Beverley Dona taking out the award for highest score (by a mile!) Bridge, Family History and Craft are also starting up with kick-off meetings in June and July.

The Vivid evening was a great success with 51 people being treated to a night of wining and dining and a chance to see all the spectacular lights right up close. Bushwalking also attracted a large crowd for a very pleasant walk along the harbour foreshores and lunch at Doyle’s at Watsons Bay. Thanks to Bob Carritt’s hard work, the walking group is becoming very popular.

Thanks to the Antonjuk’s for hosting the June Wine and Cheese Evening. It was very well attended.  

Finally, the Payments for the Berry trip are coming in fast, and we have only a few places left.  I hope you will be able to join us for a fabulous weekend.

Just a reminder that if you have not sent your Risk form to Colin McGowan, please do so as soon as possible.
I look forward to seeing you again at the June meeting.

Tony Coote

Guest Speaker - Liz Tolhurst – Guide Dogs

Picture


Liz emigrated from England in 1974 to the best place in the world, where she met her husband and had three children. They are all grown up now with children of their own and she has been retired for ten years. Liz has dabbled in a few things since then to try and keep busy, but never seemed to find anything really satisfying. Then she found Guide Dogs and it has been the best thing she has ever done.

Bridge

We have not had any more members come forward who want to play Bridge – so it has been decided to start the Group with those who have expressed an interest to date.
This means that we will have between 4 and 6 players and will meet on the 4th Tuesday of each month, starting in July, at our place in Cherrybrook and play from 10:30 to about 2:30 with a BYO Lunch in the middle --- Coffee, Tea and Biscuits will be provided.
​

We are hoping that there are more Bridge Players out there who would enjoy this small, casual Group – you do not need to be a member of a Bridge Club. You just need to know the basics. Interested parties can contact us.

Day Trip Country Brewer Kingswood Tuesday 13th June 2017

​16 of us met at Heritage Park and made the trip out to Kingswood. The Country Brewer has everything for the home brewer and foodie.
We were given a demo on how to make Fetta, Mozarella and Haloumi and then tasting platters of the finished products. Dee (the owner) put on some beautiful home-made tasting platters for us to try featuring her cheese and sausage products, and also tastings of home-brewed apple & strawberry cider and beer. Dee’s home-made yoghurt was also a big hit.

All our members participated in the cheese making and learned some of the tricks of the trade.

A good time was had by all.

Lawn Bowls

Picture
We had a group of 9 roll up at the Hills Bowling Club for a great afternoon of bowls in May. We also welcomed Sue & Santo Calabrese to the group for their first roll up. Thanks to Fran for organising the remaining bowlers, while I looked after Sue & Santo.

The club was packed due to another group of 100 bare foot bowlers & the final of the Club single finals, however, after a great lunch, we managed 2 hours of fun on the green, prior to visiting the bar for some liquid refreshments.

Unfortunately, due to family commitments this month, and a hospital visit early next month, I will not be available for bowls until August. I will discuss this with the group at the June meeting, and maybe we can arrange something in my absence.

Movies Activity

Our June movie viewing was at Events Castle Towers and what an enjoyable activity it was! Viceroy’s House was appreciated by all of us and we all commented on the fact that we knew so little of the history of India and its independence. So, not only entertaining but educational!  The movie was followed up with a yummy lunch at Spears.
Join us on the first week of July for more scintillating company and a great movie. Watch this space for more information.

Opal Card Overnight Trips

Picture
 Based on the “Interest Sheet” alone, at our last meeting we had 50, yes 50 members expressing an interest in such activities.

Thus we have a new activity and I’m your latest activity leader.
So where do you want to go?
I’m looking for suggestions!

We need to consider:

When:
  • Time of week, eg mid-week (Monday to Thursday, avoid Friday to Sunday nights).
  • Only one night away.
  • Comfortable traveling time to ensure adequate time at destination.
  • Have regard to other activates, eg club meetings, weekend away (Mudgee in March and Berry in August), walking tours, School holidays, Easter, Xmas etc.
Where:
  • Whilst there are numerous options and I’m looking for your ideas.
  • For starters some suggestions have included, Leura/Katoomba, Southern highlands, Kiama, Newcastle/Honeysuckle, Hunter Valley.
  • Accommodation, type, standard, acceptable price range, breakfast included.
  • Ease of access to accommodation and attractions once at our destination railway station or bus stop.
  • Technology, let’s make use of it, looking for any good links etc?
Mode of transport (Opal card):
  • Train, bus and/or ferry, we are not limited to trains.
 
My initial thoughts on “when” is after the Berry weekend, so possibly circa October, as for where and transport mode I  have a blank canvas.

Has anyone had an all inspiring experience that could be suitable?

Please contact Max Henderson.

Ten Pin Bowling

Picture
The first Ten Pin Bowling activity was held on 2 June at Castle Hill.
Although we only had 5 players a fun time was had by all.

The highlights of the day were as follows:

* Glenda’s win in game one:
* Beverley’s win in game 2 with a score just shy of 150 with daylight second;
* Sue’s overstep on her run up which saw her fall into the alley and follow her bowl.            Incredibly, the ball took out 3 pins and Sue the remaining 7 pins.



It pains me to advise the girls smashed the guys.  Whilst us guys would like to think we were just being gentlemen in allowing the girls to win, unfortunately, this is far from the truth.  Hopefully we can lift our game.

The next 10 Pin Bowling event is scheduled for Friday afternoon 21st July @1.30pm. We need to book ahead and pay a deposit, so it is important we have exact numbers a week out.

A registration sheet will be available at the June meeting for those wishing to participate.

Walking Report – Rose Bay to Watsons Bay

It was a magnificent day. The location was perfect.
We met at Circular Quay at 9.15am to catch the ferry to Rose Bay. We set off and soon discovered why this is known as one of Sydney’s iconic walks. The houses were outrageous and the views back up the harbour to Sydney, the bridge and the opera house were spectacular. It was easy walking and while it is publicised as a four hour walk, we easily completed it in just under three. (despite a blunder up a dead end).

Some of us re-lived School picnics or excursions as children to Nielsens Park, with its lovely suspension bridge. We all loved the Hermitage Trail part of the walk along the foreshores. We all agreed that everyone should do this walk.

To top it all off, we all enjoyed fish and chips, calamari or prawns when we arrived at the Watsons Bay wharf.  We took the ferry back to Circular Quay and were all back home again by 3.30pm.

Wetlands of Bicentennial Park

In keeping with our attempts to make the walks reasonably close bye and not too difficult, the next walk will be around the wetlands of Bicentennial Park at Homebush. This is an easy walk of about 7 kilometres along flat ground. It is paved for the most part with a boardwalk section through the mangroves. It will take us about three hours to complete and will include a stop at the coffee shop at around lunch time. Bicentennial Park has a network of walkways through 60 hectares of wetlands with something for everyone, connecting bird hides, boardwalks, observation towers, picnic areas, shipwrecks and numerous water features. If willing, we will include the Brickpit Ring Walk which is a fascinating diversion of about 30 minutes to view the first government run brickyard.

Arrangements:        Monday 3rd July 10.00am

We will meet in the carpark in Victoria Avenue, Concord West at 10.00am. If you drive down Victoria Ave, the carpark is on the left immediately after passing under Homebush Bay Drive. Alternatively, you can catch a train to Concord West and walk over the footbridge and 300 metres down Victoria Ave to the carpark. The walk, including the brickpit and the coffee/lunch stop should be all over by 2.00pm.

Wine & Cheese

Two Wine and Cheese evenings have been held since the last report.

The first on May 25th was held at Glenda and Tony Coote’s residence with a Country and Western Theme. It was very well attended with over 25 attendees. Everyone got into the spirit (or should that be wine) of the evening dressing to the theme.
The second was held on June 9th at Susan and David Antonjuk’s residence. Despite a wet and windy night over 20 attended. A very convivial time was had by all.

Thanks again to the Coote’s and Antonjuk’s for providing venues.

The next W&C evening will be a “Christmas in July” event. Christmas dress and festive food are the order of the evening.

on                         Saturday 22nd July at 7:30pm
at                          Bev and Bob Davison’s residence.
Address                 To be emailed
Theme                   Christmas in July
