Our Club Assembly welcomed the attendance of Jenny Ryder and Kathryn Langford of the award winning Anytime Fitness, who will be our guest speakers next Wednesday.
The results of the membership survey carried out by Lee were interesting and showed how our members are feeling. An plan of action is the next step to address the outcomes and to implement member ideas for improvement.
Zahli had another successful fundraiser on Friday night with Bingo at Roches, supported by a host of her supporters and some from our club. Zahli and her mother Linda have done an incredible job in fundraising for the Jacaranda Festival and we should feel proud to sponsor her.
Look forward to hearing from Jenny and Kathryn and seeing you all Wednesday.
The Long Lunch is an unmatched foodie experience reflecting the true character of this food-producing region.
Two of the Clarence Valley’s most inspiring chefs, Zac Roberts🇦🇺👨🍳 of Karrikin and Charly Prétet🇫🇷👨🍳 of The French Pan Tree, have designed a meal to remember using the best produce the Clarence has to offer.
What’s included…
Experience a Sunday lunch like no other*. Over six courses, our guest chefs present a showcase of all the best food grown in the Clarence Valley, including produce from recent Business Award Winners Mirrabooka Pork 🐷🥓, fruit and veg from Causley Fresh 🍎🥗🥑, seafood from Clarence River Fishermen’s Co-operative 🦐🐟 and a long list of local growers and small food enterprises.
Since the Clarence is not a wine-producing region, we have selected exquisite wines from the Granite Belt including Robert Channon Wines, Heritage Estate Wine, Symphony Hill Wines and Ballandean Wines 🍇🍷. Coopers Brewery will be running our licensed bar, featuring their current Vintage Ale and the recently-released XPA on tap🍺. All guests receive a glass of bubbly 🥂 on arrival and wine with selected courses.
Plus we have some spectacular raffle prizes up our sleeve, including a weekend for two at the luxury Angourie Resort. As for the auction, we’re offering a week in an Italian villa 🇮🇹 with a $500 flight voucher provided by Grafton Travel. ✈️
