At a glance with the CEO

DEAN BOWTELL

With the hotel including 209 car parks being built from 2017, Southport Sharks is entering a transitional phase that will grow our reputation as a leader in delivering sport, leisure and entertainment services to the Gold Coast. Whilst construction of the hotel will affect car parking in the short term, particularly the area closest to the Fitness Centre, we aim to minimise the inconvenience as much as possible. To ensure the safety of our members, there will be a temporary covered walkway to link the club and the Fitness Centre during construction (see below map). I would like to take this opportunity to thank you in advance for your cooperation and understanding during construction.

Welcome to the summer edition of BITE. Here at Southport Sharks, we are gearing up for the festive season and enjoying all things 'Big Top' as we immerse ourselves in our Cash Carnival promotion – simply renew your membership for 2017 for a chance to win a share of $20,000!

In October, we acknowledged our 'Game Changers' Dr Alan Mackenzie, Wally Fankhauser and Gerry Carmody, with the unveiling of their bronze sculptures at Doc Mackenzie's birthday.

Friends and family gathered in Carmody's Restaurant & Bar to celebrate and acknowledge Doc's long-standing leadership and contribution to Southport Sharks for over 40 years.

As 2016 draws to a close, we would also like to reflect on our outstanding team members. We are proud to have eight individuals who have worked at Sharks for over 20 years, and 63 (25%) have over 10 years’ service. This is a huge achievement for a sporting club of this size and we thank you for your loyal dedication to the club.

On behalf of Southport Sharks, I wish all our member and guests a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. We are looking forward to a successful 2017 and hope the community will continue to show their support in the football stands and in the club.

Our Game Changers Southport Sharks wishes to recognise its three most influential people by displaying bronze sculptures of our “Game Changers” – Alan Mackenzie, Wally Fankhauser and Gerry Carmody. Officially unveiled in October, the sculptures can be viewed in Carmody’s Restaurant & Bar entrance.

Dr Alan Mackenzie ‘Doc’ Club President 1974 – Current An AFL Queensland (QAFL) life member, Dr Alan Mackenzie started his Southport medical practice in the 1970s. He was elected Southport Sharks President in 1974, and has held the position every year since.

Mackenzie’s Sports Bar was aptly named after ‘Doc’ in recognition of the success of the club through his leadership.

2008 - QAFL Hall of Fame 2011 - QAFL Legend 2012 - Jack Titus Service Award

Wally Fankhauser Club Vice President 1974 – 1976 & 1978 – 1995 The late Wally Fankhauser generously donated $2 million to establish new club facilities at Musgrave Hill, Southport.

In addition to his generous donation, Fankhauser also put in the hard yards - personally bulldozing the mounds in place for the full-sized Aussie rules oval, now recognised as the Wally Fankhauser Sports Reserve. Fankhauser served as Vice-President for 23 years up to his passing in 1995.

Gerry Carmody Treasurer 1975-1985, 19881993, 2011 Finance Director 1976 – 1984 Secretary 1989 – 1991 In 1974, the late Gerry Carmody was elected Treasurer of Southport Sharks. Carmody’s long association with the Southport Sharks committee, primarily as Secretary and Treasurer, formed part of the most stable administration of any club in Australia. His impact on the club was recognised with the naming of Carmody’s Restaurant & Bar. He sadly passed away in 2011.

Meet the Artist - Dr Rhyl Hinwood AM Since childhood, Rhyl Hinwood had a gift for capturing a person’s likeness in pencil and paint. A self-taught sculptor in clay, stone and bronze, Hinwood has over 40 years experience as a commissioned sculptor. Hinwood takes pride in producing the finest artwork for institutions, government, corporations and collections. In 2006, she became a Member of the Order of Australia for her creation of the Australian Coat of Arms at Parliament House. Her skilled craftsmanship shows in the quality of the bronze sculptures of our three game changes.

Community

HERE FOR THE

COMMUNITY BENEFIT FUND:

Southport Sharks, with the support of our members, is committed to the local Gold Coast community. For every new membership or membership renewal, Southport Sharks donates $1 from the membership fee to a charity of the member’s choice – either Sharks Community Benefit Fund, Southport Sharks Juniors or Gold Coast Hospital Foundation.

Gold Coast Hospital Foundation was recently able to purchase a very important piece of equipment to assist in the training of Emergency Staff, the iSimulate, thanks to a contribution of $5,369 from Southport Sharks members.

“The iSimulate training system is a real-time education unit used to train Emergency Department clinicians. It allows staff to practice responses to trauma and other difficult cases that require teamwork and timeliness in an environment similar to real life. These scenarios can help identify inefficiencies or weaknesses in the system, knowledge gaps in individuals, as well as building relationships within and between departments. It has been estimated as part of our research… approximately 2400 patients will benefit from the training our staff will receive using this system” – Joe Hanlon, Business Development Manager, Gold Coast Hospital Foundation

SOUTHPORT SHARKS COMMUNITY STUDY AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM: STUDY GOLD COAST

GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY

With Southport Sharks being located in the City of Gold Coast’s Health and Knowledge Precinct, a Southport Sharks Community Study and Development Program was established. This provides an opportunity for local and international students to pathway into the hospitality industry. Sharks formed a partnership with Study Gold Coast on the Major’s International Student Ambassador Program by offering an internship for one of the international students, Diego Gomez Marcos with our Management team. “My internship at Southport Sharks is allowing me to boost my leadership skills while establishing significant connections within both the Club and the community of the Gold Coast” said Diego.

Sharks partnered with Griffith University offering undergraduates the opportunity to gain practical on-the-job experience. In 2016, Sharks presented four students from the School of Hotel and Tourism Management, the opportunity to undertake 75 hours of work placement within the club, learning skills on reception, gaming, bar and fine dining - you may have met Arisa Takahashi, Beatrice Zhao, Taewoo Kim (Rick) and Tyler MacDonald during September and October during their placement. Sharks is pleased to have offered Tyler a casual Bar Attendant position in the Lounge Bar upon completion of her training and we welcome her to the team. All students were given the opportunity to experience Melbourne Cup at Southport Sharks.

CITY OF GOLD COAST’S LOVE TO RIDE CHALLENGE: For the second consecutive year, Southport Sharks has signed up to be part of the City of Gold Coast’s Love to Ride Challenge. This is a fun, free competition to encourage Gold Coasters to experience firsthand the joy and benefits of riding a bike. Running through the month of November, in 2016, this event challenges workplaces and individuals to get on their bikes. Employees at Southport Sharks decided competing with other organisations on the Gold Coast wasn’t enough, they wanted to ‘Beat the Boss’ by logging more kilometres than CEO, Dean Bowtell, who is an avid cyclist, cycling hundreds of kilometres per month for enjoyment and fitness.

“Love to Ride is a good opportunity to promote the health and fitness benefits of cycling and a little healthy competition into the workplace.

Here at the Southport Sharks, we support our employees where possible to choose cycling or walking to work by providing secure bike parking, showers and change rooms. Encouraging employees to get back on their bikes for fun opens them up to start thinking of cycling to work, as a much cheaper and healthier alternative to driving a car.” - Dean Bowtell.

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

There’s no wonder the festive season is a favourite time of year. Everywhere you look, there seems to be tinsel, baubles, carols and a general sense of Christmas cheer. Southport Sharks is no exception, with the club being transformed into a festive wonderland. The traditional scents of Christmas food will be in Frenzy Food Court, with delicious dishes such as roast turkey and smoked ham being added to the buffet every night in December.

Alternatively, you can enjoy a two course Christmas lunch at Frenzy's with your choice of roast pork, beef or baked ham with a dessert of plum pudding and brandy sauce from $14.90 for members. This is available Monday - Friday from Dec 1 - Jan 6 during the lunch hours of 11.30am - 2.00pm.

Carmody’s Restaurant & Bar will also feature a three course Christmas set menu throughout

the month from $58.90 for members and $60.90 for guests and the Ladies Lunch special will also feature a Christmas twist, with five main courses to choose from.

The Christmas Family Night is a popular night on the Southport Sharks social calendar and this year’s event on December 18 will be another night not to be missed. The excitement kicks off at 5pm with face painting, Christmas goodies, LOL Crew performing Christmas carols with Fideous the Frog and the Grinch, plus a visit from Mr Sharky and his friend – Santa Claus! The all-you-can-eat, Christmas-themed buffet begins at 5.30pm, with prices ranging from $34.90 for members and $38.90 for guests. The Café will also be available for light meals or snack cravings you might have throughout the night.

Tis the Season for Giving...

Christmas is the season for giving and thinking about those less fortunate than us.

There are many ways you can make a difference to some Gold Coaster’s Christmas this year. Our suggestion to giving locally this Christmas is with Rosies, as the festive season is one of the loneliest times of the year. Help Rosies bring the gift of ‘presence’, now and in the future…

Rosies is a not-for profit, volunteer based organisation that commenced in Queensland in 1987 as a youth mission. These days, their support reaches friends on the street, in the courts, detention centres, drop-in centre and more. Rosies actively have over 1100 volunteers who aim to provide support and friendship to people who are marginalised in the community – particularly those that are homeless, at risk of becoming homeless or lonely. Through their website, you can make a direct donation, apply to volunteer or host a #cuppa4rosies fundraising event. You can also drop–off the following gifts to the Southport drop-in centre for their volunteers to pass on: instant coffee, milo, and non-perishable food.

Be amazed by the history of the beloved carnival

CARNIVAL FUN FACTS:

The tradition of carnivals originated hundreds of years ago in ancient Italy, where followers of the Catholic religion would dress up in masks and crazy costumes before the first day of Lent. They called the festival “carnevale” (which means “to put away the meat”), as Catholics traditionally, do not eat meat during Lent. Besides the excessive consumption of alcohol, meat and sweet foods, other traditions of mock battles, food fights, social satire and general rule-breaking, the display of human oddities or “grotesque bodies” was also common.

The travelling carnival began in America in the late 1800’s due to improvement in technology and transport.

Human oddities and the rise of the freak show Since the 16th century, freak shows became popular past times in England, with people flocking to carnivals to ogle human deformities, which became a form of popular entertainment. An example of this, were the popular freak show act, “Lazarus and Joannes Baptista Colloredo”, the conjoined twins of Genoa, Italy. There were also various versions of the “World’s Strongest Man”, as well as Sara Baartman, who went by the stage name “Hottentot Venus”, who was marvelled by many due to the abnormally large size of her buttocks. Today, humanity’s obsession with the abnormal is still prevalent, as can be seen with the success of popular TV shows: Embarrassing Bodies, Extraordinary People and Body Shock.

The Eiffel Tower in Paris was built for the Paris Word Fair (carnival) in 1889, which honoured the 100th anniversary of the French Revolution.

“Midnight Madness” is when a carnival stays open after midnight into the morning’s early hours.

The Rio carnival in Brazil is considered the world’s largest carnival, with over two million people attending each day.

The Ferris Wheel was invented

by George W. Ferris for the World Fair of 1893 in Chicago, which celebrated the 400th anniversary of Columbus’s landing in America.

DID YOU KNOW? Commonly referred to as “the City of Love”, Paris is also known as the ‘City of Light’ as it became the centre of education, learning and philosophy in the 18th century.

Parisians love their croissants and baguettes, with over 1784 bakeries in the city.

Originating in Paris in the 19th century, haute couture is French for "high-sewing" or "high fashion", meaning the creation of exclusive, custom fitted clothing. Only fashion houses meeting certain standards, such as handcrafted, high quality and unusual fabric, may adopt the term. Well renowned French fashion houses include Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Balenciaga, Dior, Yves Saint Laurent and Emanuelle Ungaro.

It would take you roughly 28.9 years to see all of the open terraces (bars, restaurants, cafés - similar to Cabana Bar & Lounge!) in Paris, if you were to spend a day at each one. There are currently over 9000 of them in the city.

Excuse my French...

SUM Palm trees. Blue skies. Ice cold drinks. It’s summertime on the Gold Coast, which means social days out and about with friends or family in the sun! Luckily, Southport Sharks is here to keep you refreshed and hydrated this season with a bunch of summer specials on offer and thirstquenching, ice cold beers.

BEER - The summer beverage of choice Would it really be summer without a taste of your favourite beer? Possibly, but it wouldn’t be as satisfying somehow! Beer fans, there are now more beer options on the market than ever before, so it’s the perfect time to step out of your comfort zone and try something new. Whether you’re a fan of that classic, old-school bitter taste of premium lagers but want to venture into the new world of craft beers and pale ales, or visa versa, we have your guide to navigating the world of beer this summer!

FOR THE OLD SOULS Sometimes, it’s hard to go past the classics. Lagers are a type of beer that is conditioned in low temperatures (both in the fermentation and storage phases of brewing) and are developed with a particular kind of yeast. With this kind of beer, there is a world of choice to explore! From Japan to Italy, right back to an Aussie favourite, you can experience an array of international brews at Sharks.

WHAT CAN I TRY AT SHARKS? Asahi Dry, Kirin Pure Taste, Peroni Nastro Azzurro, Crown Lager and Heineken can all be purchased individually or by the 6 pack or carton at FINS Cellar.

MER s n o ti ensa S

THE NEW BREWS

It’s certainly a brave new world. The boutique beer industry is on the rise, as is evident with the new craft breweries popping up everywhere you look on the Gold Coast (Black Hops and Balter Brewing, to name a couple). The increase in popularity to this beverage category is opening up the door to even more beer varieties on the market and consequently, more choice for consumers. Why are so many options now available? It’s all about the hop level brewers are experimenting with, adding different levels of flavour and dimension to these beers. Hops impart bitterness to combat the sweetness of the malt in beer and there are hundreds of varieties that each add their own distinct flavour and aroma to every beer.

Pale Ales, a popular craft beer choice, are characterised by their light, nutty malts and spicy herbal hops, adding a clean finish to the beer. India Pale Ales, or as they’re more commonly referred to, IPA’s, are characterised by higher alcohol content and a stronger hop presence. Not for the fainthearted but if you’re after robust flavours then you should definitely explore this style with a hearty, summer meal, like an iconic Aussie BBQ.

James Squire One Fifty Lashes, Out & About, Mountain Goat and Wild Yak are all pale ales you can try, or for your IPA fix, try the BLING India Pale Ale, which are all available for purchase at FINS Cellar.

AUSTRALIANS

ALL LET US REJOICE! Australia Day is the time of year when we get to stop and appreciate how lucky we are to live in this amazing country and celebrate what it means to be an “Aussie.” It’s the perfect excuse to gather your family and mates together around the pool or beach and throw some snags on the barbie. If you are planning a barbeque this year, be sure to check out the recipes on the next few pages to ensure your barbie is a fair dinkum hit!

Or why not take the stress out of a family affair and leave the hard work to us?

Southport Sharks has an array of Aussie Celebrations happening at the club on January 26 including a face painter from 1pm - 3pm, a Kids Australia Day Party with LOL Crew from 1.30pm, a visit from Mr Sharky at 2pm and a live reptile show from 4pm - 5pm (with photo opportunities for the kids!)

Special races will also be held on Fankhauser Reserve, known as the Griffith University Australia Day Gift, which will run from 10.30am - 3pm. Adults will have a great view of these races from Cabana Bar & Lounge, where Triple J's Hottest 100 will be playing live from 11am. Plus catch the toad races there from 3pm - 4pm!

To end the day on the ultimate Aussie high, there will be a Summer Surf Party on the main stage from 8.30pm, performing great party tunes for FREE. Aussie tucker will be added to the Frenzy Food Court dinner buffet from January 24 – 27 including: lamb roast, lamb chops, BBQ prawns, lamb sausages, minute steaks, crumbed whiting, grilled chicken, pavlova, lamingtons plus strawberries and cream – yum! *Please note, Carmody’s Restaurant & Bar will be closed for lunch on Australia Day but will be open for dinner. Daily promotions and karaoke will be held as usual on Australia Day.

ANDREW'S Chermoul

MEET SHARKS’ EXECUTIVE CHEF Andrew Dugard Born in Grimsby, England (not only famous for its great fishing port but also for selling some of the best fish and chips in the country), Andrew migrated to Australia in 1989. Before settling on the Gold Coast, Andrew enjoyed working as a chef in some of Australia’s most picturesque places – Ayers Rock, Fraser Island, Daydream Island.

What started out as a fun Saturday activity, baking bread with his dad, lead Andrew to attend Grimsby College of Tech, studying City and Guilds Catering. Andrew continues to evolve his skills by doing a lot of research and letting his culinary creations be influenced by current dietary requirements and plenty of experimentation with ingredients.

To get a taste of Andrew’s culinary creations try out his amazing Chermoula Grilled Prawns recipe at your next BBQ.

SERVES 2

METHOD:

30 gm Spanish Onion 20 gm Fresh Garlic 1 Pinch Chilli Flakes 20 gm Cumin Seeds 10 gm Ground Cinnamon 10 gm Paprika 10 gm Cracked Black Pepper ½ Bunch Coriander ½ Bunch Parsley 125 ml Olive Oil 20 gm Sea Salt Rind of 1 Lemon

1

Roast off all dry ingredients for 5 minutes in a medium oven to bring out the flavours

2

Then place all ingredients in a food processor and blend to a paste

3

Place prawns in marinade for a couple of hours in the fridge and then barbeque for 3-4 mins on each side.

Alternative options: replace prawns with chicken or fish

LO VE is in the air...

The Beatles were right – all you need is love.

February 14 is no longer a day celebrated exclusively by couples. These days many people are taking the opportunity to celebrate the love they have with family members, neighbours and friends (Gal-entine’s Day is becoming increasingly popular with the ladies!)

Why not treat your loved ones to an amazing, three-course set menu in Carmody’s this Valentine’s Day? All ladies will receive a complimentary box of Roses chocolates and the gents will receive a complimentary 300ml glass of Peroni. The decadent affair of an entreé, choice of three mains and a shared dessert is $75 for members and $85 for guests.

DID YOU KNOW? Valentine’s Day dates back to the time of the Roman Empire during the time of Claudius II, who didn’t want men to marry women during the time of war.

Bishop Valentine defied his wishes and conducted weddings for couples in secret.

When Valentine was caught, he was sadly imprisoned before his eventual execution.

He wrote a note before his execution to the jailor’s daughter signing it “from your Valentine”, which is where the popular, modern day phrase originated.

TIPS FOR

2017

Aim to get at least 10,000 STEPS every day • Park further away from your destination - at the shopping centre or at work • Instead of the lift, take the stairs – a great way to build a strong booty!

• Walk the dog Always eat BREAKFAST Breakfast is SO important. Eating breakfast gets your metabolism going, which helps you burn more during the day. If you skip breakfast because you don’t have time in the morning, try setting your alarm 15 minutes earlier to allow time. Alternatively, prepare your breakfast the night before, if possible.

Have WATER on hand to drink consistently throughout the day If you don’t get enough water in your body before your workout, you won’t get as much out of your hard work. Blood brings oxygen to your muscles and brain. Blood is made up of quite a bit of water. If you are not hydrated, it is harder for you to get oxygen to where it needs to be. The more you sweat, the more water you should drink. If you drink coffee or alcohol, you should also up your water intake.

If MOTIVATION is something you know you struggle with, train with a friend Friends are the ones we spend time with on the weekends and evenings, so extend that relationship into the gym. Set a plan with regular times to meet, as well as communicate each of your specific goals. Training with a friend brings out a higher level of accountability and can unleash the competitive spirit within. Why not even try a Personal Training session with a friend at Southport Sharks Health + Fitness – the bonus is you save money!

Allow yourself to indulge on SPECIAL occasions This may mean the occasional pizza night, glass of wine, or chocolate bar.

Moderation within consistency is the biggest key to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. The key is to think long-term, not short-term.

If you are unsure where to start with your fitness goals, visit the friendly and experienced staff at Southport Sharks Health + Fitness. There are over 110 group fitness classes a week, as well as fantastic Personal Trainers to help you achieve your goals.
