June

Contents

June is the South Coast’s month of festivals, feasting and fun with lots to enjoy for all ages, tastes and interests. The biennial seechange Winter Arts Festival that began last month in Jervis Bay continues until the close of the June long weekend, showcasing impressive work by local artists, writers, musicians and performers (p22). This June long weekend will be filled with festivities as 11 South Coast wineries throw open their cellar doors for the 2014 Shoalhaven Coast Winter Wine Festival so you can sample local wines, together with exquisite culinary delights from local produce and local chefs. But don’t let the taste buds rest there; the South Coast’s only independent micro brewery, HopDog BeerWorks, is opening its tasting room for extended hours this June long weekend. See pages 8-10 for event details and check out our Foodies and Farm Trail and Wineries feature on pages 28-31 and our Dining Guide

on page 4 for more taste tantalising opportunities. For outdoors and sports lovers, why not help save lives while enjoying one of the South Coast’s most picturesque courses at the Troy Pocock Meningococcal Golf Day? (See p19). For more picturesque outdoor experiences, visit Shoalhaven Zoo, take to the trees with Trees Adventure (p15) or become a skywalker with Illawarra Fly’s winter 2 for 1 deal (p6). As always there’s plenty of live entertainment to enjoy in venues throughout the region, including shows for kids at the Shoalhaven Entertainment Centre, an impressive line up of musicians coming to the Milton Theatre and some great stage drama at Shellharbour’s Roo Theatre. What a month to enjoy! See you around the South Coast.

Visitors will have the chance to taste some wonderful wines from Tempranillo to Chambourcin, Tannat, Cabernet Sauvignon, Arneis, Merlot, Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Verdelho - but it’s the fabulous food that is shaping up as one of the highlights of this year’s festival.

Former MasterChef Professional Coop Woodstone is now at the helm at Crooked River Winery Restaurant and will serve his specialty of modern French cuisine or a tasting plate for those preferring to sit on the lawn overlooking the vineyards and ocean.

At Coolangatta Estate feast on freshly shucked oysters, burgers and pies or dine in the historic Alexanders Restaurant. At Silos Estate enjoy cheese and alpaca tastings, wash down a plate of oysters in the Alpaca and Sparkling Wine bar, or enjoy a meal in the highly credentialed Silos Restaurant with executive chef and 2013 Young Chef of the Year, Nick Gardener. Mountain Ridge staff will serve scrumptious morsels in their new restaurant and function room, Broughton on the Ridge, while at nearby Two Figs Winery you’ll be able to feast on home-made sausage rolls, wood-fired pizzas and local cheese platters.

Enjoy a golf game with a difference! How much more would you enjoy your golf game if you could help save lives at the same time? Well, now you can, by playing in the Troy Pocock Meningococcal Foundation Golf Day at the picturesque Nowra Golf Club on Sunday 15 June 2014. The golf day is increasing awareness of the dangers of Meningococcal disease and raising much-needed funds for the Troy Pocock Meningococcal Foundation, established in memory of Nowra man Troy Pocock who died of the disease in 2001, shortly after his 21st birthday. Meningococcal disease is relatively rare but life-threatening, potentially causing death within hours if not recognised and treated promptly. Affecting around 700 Australians annually, most sufferers fully recover but 5-10% die and 20% experience permanent disabilities. Although babies and children are most at risk, the disease also affects adults and several lifestyle factors heighten the risk. Prominent Australian Clinical Microbiologist Dr Clayton Golledge said: “I’ve seen cases where someone has been well at breakfast – and dead by dinner. “About three quarters of all deaths could have been prevented with earlier recognition and treatment,” he said.

Larraine Pocock, mother of the late Troy Pocock, says educating the community to aid early recognition and treatment is at the core of the foundation’s purpose. “By playing in our golf day you will help us save lives by raising much needed funds we can use to educate people and support victims and their families,” Larraine said. For a golf game you’ll feel good about regardless of your score, register for the Troy Pocock Golf Day by contacting Nowra Golf Club on 4421 2249 or 0412 669 875.
