WELCOME
Harbord Diggers is certainly in full swing with the newly completed Health and Wellbeing Precinct now officially launched. This has seen our venue offerings expand significantly with GFitness Freshwater and Carlile Swimming keeping thousands of locals fit, active and swim-safe. As a result of these new facilities, we have experienced an increase in membership to the Mounties Group family and to those new members, we welcome you. We hope to be your club of choice for years to come. As we head into summer, we look forward to being the home of many special celebrations. More than 500 people are already booked to join us for Christmas luncheons and this year our major New Year’s Eve celebration will, for the first time ever, boast fireworks over the water along with a range of roving circus performers and entertainment!

OUR LIFE DEC-JAN 2019/2020 – HARBORD DIGGERS
In addition, we look forward to the warmer weather bringing in members for a range of reasons such as a casual breakfast catchup with friends or to enjoy a drink after a dip in the ocean. We are also offering the chance for members to win Christmas hams or toys in our $10,000 Christmas Raffle, a share of $20,000 in our Diggers Draw, or the Audi Q3 in the Mounties Group Dig & Win promotion! We wish all of our members, both new and longstanding, a very Merry Christmas and prosperous New Year. We look forward to celebrating with you over the approaching festive period.

PROFIT FOR PURPOSE & CHANGING LIVES
Visit our website or use the QR code below to view video
We were born as a not for profit social enterprise that uses its profits to assist others in need in our local community. It is this ethos of the club that has helped thousands of locals and will continue to help thousands more in the future.
“There’s thousands of people that benefit simply because Mounties Group exists. It’s the companion dogs that visit Liverpool or Fairfield Hospital, the life savers that save lives on Freshwater Beach. It’s those smaller groups that we’ve helped that make us most proud. It’s because the amount of volunteering they do far outweighs the financial contribution we make. When you put them together, lives are changed, lives are saved.” – Dale Hunt, Mounties Group CEO

AcquaFresca by Pilu
Q & A W I T H G I O VA N N I P I L U , I TA L I A N C H E F A N D O W N E R O F PILU & ACQUAFRESCA
What inspired you to travel to Australia and pursue a cooking career? I had always wanted to travel and just by chance I met my wife Marilyn whilst she was travelling in Sardinia, the rest is history! I had an interest in cooking and hospitality from a young age and worked with my relatives in a bar/ restaurant during the summer period – I guess I was always destined to cook. How would you describe your style of cooking? My cooking style is Italian and I believe it should involve simple ingredients, prepared with a minimum of fuss, allowing the ingredients to speak for themselves. What was the meal that inspired you to become a chef? Panino with octopus salad on the beach in Sardinia. What are your favourite Italian dishes? Definitely a good homemade lasagne and authentic gelato. 16

Pizza e Birra Favourite dish at AcquaFresca by Pilu?
Enjoy a pizza and Peroni for just $20 per person
My favourite dish on the menu at the moment is the pizza with Prosciutto di Parma, fresh figs and buffalo mozzarella! If you weren’t a chef, what other career path would you like to pursue? If I had my time again I would still be a chef. Any tips for aspiring chefs? Don’t give up, it’s challenging but exciting – unlike any other industry. Wherever you go in the world you will always find work. Work ethic and attitude is everything and learn the basics well. www.acquafresca.com.au Reservations: 9071 8681 Hours: Monday – Sunday 11.30am – 4pm, 5.30pm – 10.30pm

SPRING INTO SUMMER
The hottest season is here and now is the perfect time to get yourself feeling and looking summer ready. S TAY H Y D R AT E D : Water is an essential nutrient in our daily lives and helps maintain healthy skin. As we are all aware the body needs at least 8 glasses or 2 litres of water a day, but our skin (the largest organ of the body) is the last to receive that water. This can result in our skin producing more oil but at the same time still feeling dry.
R E PA I R I N G T H E S K I N : During the summer season it is essential that we repair our skin with the correct ingredients. Vitamin C, E, Boswellia and d-Panthenol are only a few of the ingredients that are essential for our skin during summer. One of our brands, Dermaviduals, provides a high quality skincare that can be tailor made for your specific skin needs and conditions. I N S A LO N T R E AT M E N T S :
H OW M U C H S PF:
To achieve a natural sun tan look, pop in and have a spray tan by Bondi Sands.
An adult body requires approximately 6 to 8 teaspoons (36 grams) of sunscreen applied to the entire body. At Urban Beauty we suggest using a SPF purely designed for use on the face for your face and neck.
Our facial treatments are tailored to your skins requirements as we recognise that each skin is different. Try our Alga mask which is suitable for all skin types, increasing hydration while cooling, soothing and healing.
It is also important that protective clothing, hats and sunglasses are worn adding to your daily sun protection.
