Manager's Report by Andrew Breeden-Walton Dear Members. The New Year is well underway and we have enjoyed a busy and prosperous few months of trade over Christmas. We hope that all your celebrations were eventful and catch up with families and friends were enjoyable. Christmas Day lunch was well patronised with over 90 enjoying our festive lunch set menu on Christmas Day. Thank you to all our members who supported the Club staff by attending and the feedback was positive with all diners enjoying the day. Our Monday Trivia Nights Strictly Quizzness have been very successful. Over 16 teams have been regularly attending and competing for fantastic prizes each week. Our pizza and a drink deal for only $12.50 has also been well supported on Monday nights in the Restaurant. Tell your friends and get a team down we still have room. Our fantastic host Ben and his wacky and weird sense of humour is entertaining to say the least. Starts at 7pm. Call Reception on 9744-1211 to book your table and team in. Our Wine Club continues to promote local wineries and another event is planned for the end of March. Details are enclosed in this edition of the newsletter. Thankyou to Di and Graeme Lofts for their tireless efforts to organise these events under our banner of Food And Wine at 49 branding. We have a Facebook page for you to follow named this as well. Be sure to LIKE it and SHARE the events with your FB friends. Easter is fast approaching, and we have a fantastic promotion for the whole of Club to enjoy. Hamper give away and prizes which start 1 March 2018 with entries at the Club will be sure to provide value and rewards to all participants if you are lucky enough to win the draw. I would like to take this opportunity to recognise and thank one of our long term staff members Ross Hooter Bridgland for his services of over 19 years to Sunbury Bowling Club, who is leaving us at the end of the month to move to Moama on the Murray. Ross has been a credit to the Club and to the bowls section for the past many years and a true Club-man on and off the greens. When I first met Ross in 2016 on my commencement as GM, I could see he was straight up worker and contributed well at the Club. I hope that he has many fond memories of his time here and celebrates with the past and present staff, Managers and Bowls Members at an informal afternoon tea coming up. Good one Ross and all the best! We also bid farewell to some other staff at the end of February, those being Sabhi Singh our Second Chef and Harrison Bence our Apprentice Greenkeeper. I wish them all the best with their future endeavours. During March there will be a slight price increase for bar items which is a result of supplier price increases being passed on. We are still one of the cheapest Clubs in Sunbury and we are certain the modest increase will be understood by the majority of Members of the Club. Notices have been placed at bars and emailed in advance of the increase. If you have any feedback, please email it through or come and speak to myself or Adam Barnard, our Assistant Manager about it. Thank you to all Members for the past year of trade and Club Sunbury support. Yours sincerely, Andrew Breeden-Walton. A.C.C.M. General Manager Club Sunbury. E: manager@sunbowl.com.au
