OUR YEAR IN A GLANCE

16 APR

A feature of the Blacktown City Council’s Youth Week event, the BYSA Outdoor Cinema ran over three nights and raised $35,000 to support BYSA (Blacktown Youth Services Association), a local notfor-profit with a 35-year legacy of providing support to Blacktown’s disadvantaged youth.

26 JUN

Another year, another Covid-19 lockdown. The team at BWCG were determined to brighten the winter lockdown with the launch of Virtual activities that brought the Workers experience into homes, including bingo, trivia, raffles, free live music, social media promotions and an 80s karaoke event.

13 Oct

Some locals had been able to get a sneak peek through home delivery during lockdown, however, members and guests were finally able to dine in the brand-new Mango Tango Thai restaurant that had been due to open as the club’s lockdown began. It is now a favourite for their authentic Thai cuisine.

Nov

It was another sad year without our annual Children’s Christmas Party, so to ensure that we still celebrated Christmas for the kiddies, the Board of Directors generously gifted a family pass to Featherdale Wildlife Park to over 700 Workers’ members and their families.

28 May

On a brisk May morning, Kay Kelly, BWCG President, stood before the crowd gathered to announce the Blacktown Workers Club Group’s commitment to spending $500,000 over 5 years to support local organisations in their fight against Domestic & Family Violence.

10 SEP

BWCG staff stepped up when NSW Health allocated a Pfizer vaccination team to set up a vaccination hub at Workers Sports. The hub focused on assisting the vulnerable residents within the heavily affected Blacktown LGA to receive their vaccination, helping NSW to reach the important milestones to reopen.

15 Oct

BlackBear BBQ had long been a friend of BWCG, including their truck visiting Workers Sports on many weekends during lockdown for locals to enjoy, and on reopen, we officially welcomed them into the Workers family with a set up in the outdoor area at Workers Sports, where you can taste their burgers and pizzas.

3 DEC

The Tin Shed luncheon is one of the most important events in the Workers calendar, with all the Tin Shed, Life and VIP members, invited to dine with the Board of Directors to commemorate those foundation members. This year we had the delight of Tin Shed members standing in their namesake bar, The Shed.

17 JUN

It was a long winter’s night for team BWCG as they embarked on the CEO & CO Winter Sleepout. The team spent a cold rough night in the carpark of Workers Blacktown to raise awareness on the issue of homelessness and raised over $33,000 which was donated to disadvantaged youth through BYSA.

16 Sep

Another lockdown initiative was the launch of home delivery. Members who were missing their Workers schnitty were able to have a taste of Workers in their own home with Workers Easy Express. The new Thai restaurant, Mango Tango Thai was also launched via delivery first.

2 Nov

Just in time for the Melbourne Cup, The Shed, Workers Blacktown’s newest sports bar was opened that Tuesday morning. With beer and betting facilities, it is the newest local hangout. Not slowing down by opening one bar, the team then launched another new bar, Redwood, on Friday evening.

6 DEC

The official opening of the Grand Foyer and Walkway took place on the same day that we celebrated the opening of Eucalyptus Dining to our members. The long-awaited dining experience is the perfect place for all members and guests to enjoy a memorable meal with family and friends.
