TO PANTHERS
PENRITH My warmest congratulations go to our very own John Farragher on receiving the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) on the Australia Day 2016 Honours List. John’s indepth knowledge of our operations and passion for footy and people has made him beloved to all who frequent our venue. We cannot thank him enough for his service over the past 34 years (see page 4 for the full story).
If you are travelling to Bathurst to see Panthers battle the Raiders at Carrington Park on Saturday 30th April, I recommend visiting Panthers Bathurst to see the finished renovations, it looks great.
There is so much happening at Your World of Entertainment in March and April, including 12 live shows in our EVAN Theatre, FREE live music in Dom’s Cocktail Lounge, Squire’s Bar and Lounge and TC’s. We also have an exciting line-up of Easter and School Holiday activities. Also come in and see our spectacular display of lanterns hanging in our main foyer!
Jason
We look forward to seeing and hearing you cheering on your team at our first blockbuster home game this month against The Doggies on Thursday 10th March.

JOHN FARRAGHER
RECOGNISED WITH ORDER OF AUSTRALIA HONOUR
Panthers Penrith management and staff are proud to congratulate our own John Farragher, who was honoured with the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) on the Australia Day 2016 Honours List. This honour recognises Mr Farragher’s significant services to our club, the sport of rugby league and the Penrith community. The Gilgandra native began his involvement with the Panthers as an aspiring young prop with a promising future in rugby league. Seven games into his career, the 21-year old suffered a severe spinal injury in a collapsed scrum at Henson Park that left him a quadriplegic in 1978.
After extensive rehabilitation, Mr Farragher turned his passion toward rugby league administration. He returned to work at Panthers Leagues Club in 1982 in client services, representing the club in greeting and assisting members and guests. Four decades later, John’s indepth knowledge of the club and unmistakable charm in his involvement with patrons has made him an established presence within the club. ”He’s a great icon of Penrith and we are truly honoured to have him working with us at Panthers.”Brian Fletcher, Panthers Chairman said. Mr Farragher’s stature within the local community was previously

recognised when he was awarded as Penrith’s 2007 Citizen of the Year. He joins executive general manager Phil Gould AM, and community and public relations executive Diane Langmack OAM in his appointment to the Order of Australia.

Q & A WITH
JUSTICE CREW
Justice Crew have come a long way since winning Australia’s Got Talent! What advice would you give other young performers aspiring to make it in the industry? The most valuable piece of advice we could give to anyone looking at working in the entertainment industry is to dream big. You can reach the limits of your own expectations with hard work and positivity! You have made huge strides on the international music scene. What was your experience like touring with Pitbull and Ke$ha in the US? The Pitbull and Ke$ha USA tour was an exciting and defining point in our career. It was a huge honour to accompany such big names. We learnt so much about life on the road and had a blast doing it!

MEET OUR SUPERFAN
Joel!
2016 will be the football club’s 50th season and we need your help to celebrate this historic chapter in the Panthers journey. We caught up with Joel Edwards, a Penrith local and Panthers superfan who has made it his mission to collect every Panthers jersey from the past 49 seasons. His collection has risen to 65 in four years, with personal favourites the 1990 retro jersey and 1991 premiership jersey taking pride of place.
