Management News

You may have seen the recent ClubsNSW television campaign that echoes sentiments along the lines of … ‘This is your club now’ and
‘At your club, everybody’s welcome’. So what are they really getting at? Recent changes impacting on all clubs across New South Wales have meant that clubs are now placing an increasing emphasis on becoming even better havens for great food, entertainment
and recreation. It’s that simple.

Indoor smoking bans come into effect on July 2 in all licensed premises and our clubs are ready for such change – in fact – we’re embracing this change and are looking to improve our service across the board for the enjoyment of all patrons – existing and potential. Our new outdoor areas will boast some of the best river views in town!

And here’s some food for thought … A third successive win in the ClubsNSW Chef’s Table Culinary Competition is indeed proof that we continue to serve up some of the best tucker in the state! The all-new ground floor facilities (new food service areas, lounges, ports bar etc.) at the Ballina RSL will provide the icing on the cake.

We are also focusing on constantly improving the swag of entertainment on offer at both of our clubs. The Big Gigs have had many chuckling in the aisles whilst our upcoming Candlelight Dinner Shows are set to impress. And there’ll be some great family entertainment with Dorothy the Dinosaur and the Junior Star Finder Competition. It will be particularly rewarding to see more
local talent showcased in this year’s singing competitions – they’re a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon!

What a journey …and it’s not over yet by a long shot. Keep on travelling with us, sit back and enjoy the ride. I can only imagine … as I’m sure you can …that you’ll soon be stretching those legs and taking a stroll along the boardwalk!

This is your club now. We’re for you.
