CHRISTMAS IN JULY $30,000 GIVEAWAY LIVE ENTERTAINMENT FOOTBALL REPORT AND NEW RECRUITS
AT A GLANCE with the CEO
Southport Sharks has been full of activity this year and winter is gearing up to be just as busy with the annual Carlton Mid Celebrity Sports Lunch on July 3, a major highlight on our events calendar. I’m excited to announce that we have secured Damien Thomlinson, an Australian veteran of the war in Afghanistan and aspiring Paralympian, as a special guest. Thomlinson’s incredible journey stands as proof that no challenge is too great and that the ANZAC spirit truly is alive and well, a pertinent message with 2015 marking the ANZAC Centenary. In other event news I am happy to see an ever growing line-up of local acts set to perform within the club. Over the years Southport Sharks has worked extremely hard in promoting live music on the Gold Coast and we are very excited to be involved as a sponsor in this year’s Gold Coast Music Awards, to be held on July 22. To create even more benefit and value for members, we launched our Infinite Rewards loyalty program in May. This program allows members to gain exclusive access to thousands of discounts and lifestyle benefits from hundreds of leading partners throughout Australia. See page 13 for more details. In recent months we have been researching the various advantages and disadvantages relating to both Ticket in Ticket out (TiTo) and Card Based Gaming. For the ease of our members, we have now installed the TiTo system. Some of the benefits associated with TiTo include decreased wait times, increased privacy of cash transactions and less cash handling when changing machines. Finally, although the road works continue for the Smith Street Motorway and Olsen Avenue Interchange upgrade, it’s great to see all lanes have reopened and traffic to and from the club is free flowing once again. We hope to see you at the club soon. Dean Bowtell

ANDY JANSBROWN & COZ*MIC INDIE POP ROCK JUNE 19 FROM 8.30PM SHARKS MAIN STAGE FREE SHOW!
ANDY JANS-BROWN & COZ*MIC’S UPLIFTING SOUND IS BEST DESCRIBED AS UPBEAT AND IN THE VEIN OF THOSE CLASSIC BANDS FROM THE PAST WHO WROTE SONGS YOU REMEMBER THE WORDS TO AND WANT TO SING ALONG TO. The band features Andy Jans-Brown on lead vocals and guitar, Alex McLeod on lead guitar, backing vocals by Cassie Rose, Luke Ferguson on bass, and drummer Shay Henderson. Hailing from Byron Bay, the indie rock outfit made a splash with their song ‘Dressed in a Woman’s Clothes’ from their debut double album ‘Letting Go!’. The song made it to number one on the Triple J Unearthed Indie Chart and was nominated for a Music Oz Award (2013). 2015 has been great for the band so far as they have rolled out a follow up double album, ‘Sunshine Avenue’ after undertaking a crowd-funding campaign. Unashamedly inspired by ‘70s and ‘80s classic rock ‘n’ roll, ‘Sunshine Avenue’ consists of 24 tracks of catchy, melodic and poetic stories, overflowing with a celebration of resilience and a ‘seize the day’ attitude. “My music is inspired by life itself - with all the highs and lows, the great love stories, the great tragedies, the big celebrations and the
16
passion that keeps us going and living and loving and hoping and aspiring no matter how many times we get knocked down,” poet-songwriter Jans-Brown says. Andy Jans-Brown & COZ*MIC have launched a number of film clips, undertaken a successful tour to Melbourne and are currently working on a DVD for release. “We’ve already begun work on our third double album and still have a couple of film clips to launch from ‘Sunshine Avenue’,” he says. “Our aim is simply to continue to write, tour and play our music. We hope to get back overseas and to play as many festivals and to as many people as possible. “The ultimate hope is that we can build a bridge to a vast international audience of music lovers and live a harmonious life music after all is best when sung in harmony.” With comparisons made of Andy’s poetic lyricism to the likes of Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, Bruce Springsteen, Allman Brothers Band and Bob Dylan, the band’s free show at Southport Sharks on June 19 is a must-see.

A Cinderella Ball To Remember A TOUCH OF FAIRYTALE MAGIC WAS IN THE AIR DURING MARCH.
Jaime Wild is a vibrant, beautiful mother of three who faces daily challenges with Motor Neurone Disease, after being diagnosed in October last year. In an effort to raise funds for Jaime to undergo stem cell treatment in Israel, and for her ongoing medical costs, her brother Geoffrey Williams, with the help of other friends and family threw her A Cinderella Ball To Remember. Sharks Events Centre was transformed into a ballroom fit for a princess on March 7 for an enchanting evening of dinner, drinks and dancing.

Donning an exquisite white dress and arriving at the venue in a carriage, Jaime
Sharks Events Centre is proud to have been able to create such a magical evening for Jaimie and help bring our generous community together to raise much-needed funds for her treatment. Our unique tailored approach to each and every event ensures the service we deliver exactly fulfils the desires of our clients.
described the moment she arrived at the ball to a red carpet awaiting her as ‘incredible’. The event was a success and Geoffrey says his experience with Sharks Events Centre could not be faulted.
With your support we managed to raise over $32,000 and just over $15,000 went to the Jamie Wild Trust, he says.
If you would like to support Jaime Wild’s ongoing medical costs you can donate at www.jaimewild.com.au, or if you’re looking for an understanding team of event coordinators for your next event please call Sharks Events Centre on (07) 5532 1155 today.

Tips to stay fit & healthy
This Winter
Feeling the cold? One of the benefits of regular exercise is a resilient immune system, which makes you less likely to become ill. To help you stay motivated and well as the winter chill sets in, follow these simple tips recommended by Southport Sharks Health + Fitness staff.
Go straight to the gym.
If you train in the afternoon or evening, plan your day so that you can go straight to SSH+F after work. It can be difficult to motivate yourself to leave the house when it’s cold and windy outside. Pack your exercise gear in the morning, along with a healthy afternoon snack to keep you energised.
Work out with others.
People who have an exercise partner are more likely to get active and stay active than those doing it on their own. Bring an exercise buddy or sign up to Small Team Training for an extra motivation boost. Stimulation and variety fire up your enthusiasm, so make the most of the 115 plus group fitness classes per week at SSH+F and try something different!
Eat well.
Maintaining a diet that is high in immunity-boosting foods will help with weight management and protect you from colds. Make sure you have plenty of high-alkaline foods such as dark, leafy green vegetables and seasonal fruit in your diet. If you’ve already got a cold, dose up on garlic for its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties, ginger and hot lemon drinks.
Keep your mind strong.
Most important of all is to approach your winter exercise routine with a positive mindset. There are many advantages to exercising in winter, such as your metabolism naturally speeding up during the cold weather to help keep you warm. Need help staying positive and fighting off stress? Try yoga! Yoga involves concentration on the breath and body, which makes it a great way to soothe a person’s mind. Consisting of activities such as relaxation, meditation, socialisation, and exercise, yoga has been proven helpful in reducing anxiety and depression.

Football Report 2015 SEASON
The football season has commenced and the boys have really appreciated the new change room facilities and coach boxes that are up and running. We would like to thank Southport Australian Rules Football Club for financing the project and indeed all our members for supporting our great club on a weekly basis. Also, a big shout-out to our ever reliable junior club who shared their rooms whilst the new change rooms were being completed. The new NEAFL season is again a step up in standard and there are no easy games on the roster. The players and coaches understand this and really are working hard to make sure Sharks are competitive on every level. The group has settled in well with 17 new additions to the playing squad of 42. We would also like to thank Simon Fletcher from the GC Suns Player Welfare Department who has assisted us through our leadership group confirmations. The players and coaches involved in this process all commented in the positive on this program and we shall revisit it throughout the season. We would also like to congratulate Ben Headland on being nominated as captain for the season. Ben is 26 years of age and has played for Sharks since he was 5-years-old. As the players commented as a collective, they are all looking for all to lead, inspire and support each other throughout the season. We understand that family, friends, partners and employers all play an important role in supporting our players and coaches throughout the season and our thanks goes out to them for their ongoing support. The players are ready to compete on a weekly basis and are excited about the challenges ahead. You can find our fixture on the Southport Sharks website. Hope to see you at the football soon. Kind regards Jason Cotter Football Manager

Southport Sharks worked hard over the pre-season to add depth to its roster and recruit players that can improve the club in all areas. “All of our recruits have not only been brought to Southport for their football abilities but for their strength of character also,” says Sharks NEAFL Operations and Development Manager Brent Kelly. “It is a testament to each one, that although they are from all over the country, they have assimilated into our team and our culture seamlessly.” Among the team’s new players are Christian Bock, Rob Clemments, Lachlan Ritchie and Tim Jones, all of whom have played senior games. All these recruits have the potential to take 2015 by storm.

Ale Tales Ale, like all beer, is made from malted grain, hops, water and yeast. Ales ferment reasonably quickly and it is this speed which contributes much of the fruity full-bodied taste for which ales are renowned. Ale isn’t restricted to pale, golden, IPA and amber varieties, especially with the recent dramatic expansion of the craft beer industry. There is nothing stopping brewers from developing new approaches, and using new ingredients to create ales that don’t fit the strict criteria of traditional beer styles.

CRICKETERS ARMS SPEARHEAD PALE ALE
Available from Cabana Bar & Lounge. $7.20 per stubby.
Available from Fins Cellar. $20.99 per 6pk.
Available from Cabana Bar & Lounge. $6 per schooner.
American-style pale ale boasting a deep amber colour and a fragrant bouquet. 28 Pale Ale is a medium bodied beer with a complex, fruity character - citrus, grapefruit, passionfruit and lychee notes.
Inspired by Stone & Wood’s home on the edge of the Pacific Ocean in Byron Bay and brewed using all Australian barley, wheat and Galaxy hops, Pacific Ale is cloudy and golden with a big fruity aroma and a refreshing finish.
This new-world pale ale is late hopped with Amarillo for a subtle citrus aroma, dry hopped with Nelson Sauvin for a tropical finish and balanced with pale malt and two specialty malts to deliver a sturdy caramel backbone.
