SCOTT’S SPOT

BY SCOTT VAUGHAN

Hello all and welcome to the latest edition of Scott’s Spot.

Office News

Not a heck of a lot to report, however there was some concern for Workplace Relations Manager, Owen Webb. Unfortunately, when walking through Rundle Mall on a wet day, Owen has a tendency to slip and slide down the 528 metre paved thoroughfare. Of concern is that he talks himself into this at the start of each journey.

Regional Meetings

There have been two regional meetings since the last edition hosted by the Hotel Augusta in Port Augusta and the Hotel Renmark in the Riverland.

Massive thanks to these venues for hosting, with attendances once again incredibly strong from both members and corporate partners.

Enjoy the super sister chat with publicans Heidi and Penny from the Hotel Augusta regarding their foray into the hotel industry and their recent freehold purchase of the hotel.

Unbeknownst to Gary and Didier, they were spotted in the board room surveying a new construction site across the road on Grenfell Street next to The Griffins Hotel. Pretty normal I guess, however wearing safety helmet and high vis was a little odd I would have thought!

If you have any entertaining stories and photos to share, please email them to svaughan@ahasa.asn.au

Was great to catch up with publicans, Craig and Tammie from the Swan Reach Hotel at the Renmark regional. They are doing great things, so go for a drive to check the pub out. You will be well looked after.
