PRESIDENT’S
REPORT.
It
is my pleasure in presenting our Club’s Annual Report to all our members.
It is again through the effort and dedication of our Board, Management
and Staff and you the Members that the Club has had a year where we could
provide a facility that moved with the times and all the restrictions and
upheaval of the smoking issues, drought and financial pressures.
The new smoking laws came into effect on 2nd July 2007, and as
predicted in previous reports the revenue of the Club had dropped by some 17%.
Despite this through effective management of the Club’s accounts and
some hard decisions from the Board of Directors the Club has traded better than
most other Clubs of the same size throughout the State, and is now showing a
pleasing improving trend with this years result being most gratifying - a profit
of $243,859 after a deficit last year of $223,775.
Once
again the Clubs inner sports clubs and social clubs have been very active,
growing or maintaining their membership numbers.
Again there has been success with the Clubs sporting teams.
Whilst participating in local competitions behaviour of club
representatives on and off the field has been of a high standard and certainly
pleasing, and I’m also pleased to report that the Arena facilities, including
the Indoor Sports Centre, has again been popular with the community and Club
members. Congratulations to all
members of the inner sports and social clubs.
I appreciate and acknowledge all the hard work provided to make each
inner club successful. Thanks again
to all involved.
To
our catering team Steve Walker and Deborah Gabelle, I would like to thank them
and their staff for their contribution to our members and facilities.
In
conclusion I would like to thank my fellow Board Members for their co-operation
and dedication to this Club. Board
members have given many hours of their own time to ensure the Boards
responsibilities have been delivered by attending many different sub-committee
meetings - it again has been great working with you.
To Peter Walker and his staff a big thanks goes to you for the way you
have carried out the day to day operation of our Club during some of the most
trying times the Club has recently experienced.
Also thank you to Penny and Priscilla for your support.
To all those who have lost their loved ones throughout the year I would
like to offer my deepest sympathy. I
would like to welcome all our new members, and thank very much all our members
for their loyalty and support. I
look forward to the times ahead and to seeing you in your Club in the near
future.
Tony Dawson,
PRESIDENT.
CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER’S REPORT.
Our industry has faced some of the most challenging hurdles that any business could face over the past several years.
Whilst we have faced the smoking restrictions as well
as the economic crisis we have also had to deal with increased costs by way of
gaming taxation and increases in power, general services and wages.
Through all of this we have been able to turn a 2008
deficit of $223,000 into a profit of almost $244,000, a very pleasing result.
The rewarding issue from the last financial year is that our services to
members and the support the Club has been able to inject back into our local
area has not been too severely reduced. With
donations and funds injected into our sporting and community groups we have seen
almost $400,000 spent by way of the Community Development Support Scheme.
Some of our increased costs have seen our gaming tax
increase this year by an additional $180,000 to a total of almost $1.3 million
dollars, and our rates and water to provide a community facility is almost
$150,000 per year.
But if you take up our profit figure of $244,000 and
add back our depreciation of over $1.26 million it shows a healthy change in
this year’s financials.
To Tony and his fellow Directors, I thank you for your
support throughout the year, and the staff both frontline and back of house,
your support to our members has been of a high standard.
CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER.

For
the period 1 September 2007 to 31 August 2008 the profit attributable to gaming
was $3,440,494 and $391,269 was applied to Community Development & Support

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009
NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial report is a general purpose financial report that has been prepared in accordance with
Australian Accounting Standards, including Australian Accounting Interpretations and other
authoritative pronouncements of the Australian Accounting Standards Board and the Corporations
Act 2001.
Goulburn Workers’ Club Ltd (the Club) is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated and
domiciled in Australia. The financial report covers the Club as an individual entity.
The financial report of the Club complies with all Australian equivalents to International Financial
Reporting Standards (AIFRS) in their entirety.
A number of Australian Accounting Standards have been issued or amended prior to the date of this
report but are only applicable to future reporting periods and accordingly have not been applied in
preparing this financial report. The Directors are of the opinion that when the relevant Accounting
Standards are first applied, there will be no material impact on the accounting policies of the
Company and no material impact on the income statement or balance sheet of the Company.
Application of the pending standards will have a minor impact on disclosures presently made in the
financial statements.
The following is a summary of the material accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the
financial report. The accounting policies have been consistently applied, unless otherwise stated.
Basis of Preparation
Reporting Basis and Conventions
The financial report has been prepared on an accruals basis and is based on historical costs modified
by the revaluation of selected non-current assets, and financial assets and financial liabilities for
which the fair value basis of accounting has been applied.
Accounting Policies
(a) Income Tax
The Club is exempt from income taxation under the relevant provisions of the Income Tax
Assessment Act 1997.
(b) Inventories
Inventories are measured at the lower of cost and net realisable value. The cost includes direct
materials, direct labour and an appropriate portion of variable and fixed overheads. Overheads are
applied on the basis of normal operating capacity. Costs are assigned on the basis of weighted
average costs.

ABN 67 001 003 596
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009
NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(c) Property, Plant and Equipment
Each class of property, plant and equipment is carried at cost or fair value less, where applicable any
accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
Where a revaluation has been performed, any accumulated depreciation at the date of the
revaluation is eliminated against the gross carrying amount of the asset and the net amount is
restated to the revalued amount of the asset.
The carrying amount of property, plant and equipment is reviewed at each balance sheet date to
ensure it is not in excess of the recoverable amount from these assets. The recoverable amount is
assessed on the basis of the expected net cash flows that will be received from the assets
employment and subsequent disposal. The expected net cash flows have been discounted to their
present values in determining recoverable amounts.
An asset’s carrying amount is written down immediately to its recoverable amount if the asset’s
carrying amount is greater than its estimated recoverable amount.
Subsequent costs are included in the asset’s carrying amount or recognised as a separate asset, as
appropriate, only when it is probable that future economic benefits associated with the item will
flow to the Club and the cost of the item can be measured reliably. All other costs (eg. repairs and
maintenance) are charged to the income statement during the financial period in which they are
incurred.
Increases in the carrying amount arising on revaluation of assets are credited to a revaluation reserve
in shareholder’s equity. Decreases that offset previous increases of the same asset are charged
against fair value reserves directly in equity; all other decreases are charged to the income statement.
The assets’ residual values and useful lives are reviewed, and adjusted if appropriate, at each
balance sheet date.
Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing proceeds with the carrying amount.
These gains and losses are included in the income statement. When revalued assets are sold,
amounts included in the revaluation reserve relating to that asset are transferred to retained earnings.
Depreciation
The depreciable amounts of all fixed assets including capitalised leased assets are depreciated on
either a straight line or diminishing value basis over their estimated useful lives to the entity
commencing from the time the asset is held ready for use. Leasehold improvements are depreciated
over the shorter of either the unexpired period of the lease or the estimated useful lives of the
improvements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009
NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(d) Leases
Leases of fixed assets, where substantially all the risks and benefits incidental to the ownership of
the asset, but not the legal ownership, are transferred to the entity are classified as finance leases.
Finance leases are capitalised, recording an asset and a liability at the lower of the amounts equal to
the fair value of the leased asset or the present value of the minimum lease payments, including any
guaranteed residual. Lease payments are allocated between the reduction of the lease liability and
the lease interest expense for the period.
Leased assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives.
Lease payments for operating leases, where substantially all the risks and benefits remain with the
lessor, are charged as expenses in the periods in which they are incurred.
Lease incentives under operating leases are recognised as a liability and amortised on a straight-line
basis over the life of the lease term.
(e) Financial Instruments
Recognition
Financial instruments are initially measured at cost on trade date, which includes transaction costs,
when the related contractual rights or obligations exist. Subsequent to initial recognition these
instruments are measured as set out below.
Financial assets at fair value through profit and loss
A financial asset is classified in this category if acquired principally for the purpose of selling in the
short term or if so designated by management and within the requirements of AASB 139 - Financial
Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. Gains and losses arising from changes in the fair value
of these assets are included in the income statement in the period in which they arise.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables are financial assets with fixed or determinable payments and are stated at
amortised cost using the effective interest rate method.
Held-to-maturity investments
These investments have fixed maturities, and it is the intention to hold these investments to
maturity. Any held-to-maturity investments held are stated at amortised cost using the effective
interest rate method.
Available-for-sale financial assets
Available-for-sale financial assets include any financial assets not included in the above categories.
Available-for-sale financial assets are reflected at fair value. Unrealised gains and losses arising
from changes in fair value are taken directly to equity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009
NOTE 1 STATEMENT OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT’D)
(e) Financial Instruments (cont’d)
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are recognised at amortised cost, comprising original debt less principal
payments and amortisation.
Fair Value
Fair value is determined based on current bid prices for all quoted investments. Valuation
techniques are applied to determine the fair value for all unlisted securities, including recent arms
length transactions, reference to similar instruments and option pricing models.
Impairment
At each reporting date, an assessment is made of whether there is objective evidence that a financial
instrument has been impaired. In the case of available-for-sale financial instruments, a prolonged
decline in the value of the instrument is considered to determine whether an impairment has arisen.
Impairment losses are recognised in the income statement.
(f) Impairment of Assets
At each reporting date, the Club reviews the carrying values of its tangible and intangible assets to
determine whether there is any indication that those assets have been impaired. If such an
indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset, being the higher of the asset’s fair value less
costs to sell and value in use, is compared to the asset’s carrying value. Any excess of the asset’s
carrying value over its recoverable amount is expensed to the income statement.
Where it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, the recoverable
amount of the cash generating unit (CGU) to which the asset belongs is estimated.
(g) Intangible Assets
Intangible assets acquired separately are initially measured at cost. The Club’s intangible assets are
comprised of poker machine entitlements. The poker machine entitlements are capitalised when
purchased at cost. The entitlements have an infinite useful life as there is no expiry date attached to
the entitlements.
(h) Employee Benefits
Provision is made for the liability for employee benefits arising from services rendered by
employees to balance date. The benefits expected to be settled within one year to employees for
their entitlements have been measured at the amounts expected to be paid including on-costs and are
disclosed as current liabilities. Employee benefits payable later than one year are measured at the
present value of the estimated future cash outflows to be made in respect of those benefits. In
calculating the present value of future cash flows in respect of long service leave, the probability of
long service leave being taken is based upon historical data.

(i) Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term
highly liquid investment with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank
overdrafts are shown within short term borrowings in current liabilities on the balance sheet.
(j) Revenue
Revenue from poker machine clearances is the amount of monies collected from the poker machine,
net of the amount paid out as winnings to customers.

The Club currently has 110 (2008: 110) poker machines. Due to changes in the Gaming Machines
Act 2001 (the Act), each of these poker machines has an entitlement granted by the Liquor
Administration Board. These entitlements to hold poker machines can be traded between clubs and
therefore have a value. Based on recent trading of poker machine entitlements, the Directors
consider each entitlement to have a sale value of around $16,000. 100 of the Club’s entitlements
with a sale value of approximately $1,600,000 pre-date the Act and were granted free of charge and
accordingly have not been recognised on the Balance Sheet. A further 10 entitlements result from
purchasing 15 entitlements and forfeiting 5 entitlements as required by the Act. The purchase price
of these purchased entitlements has been capitalised and is disclosed above as “Poker machine
entitlements – at cost”.
In accordance with Australian Accounting Standards, the poker machine entitlements are not
amortised as they have an indefinite life.

The secured bank loans are comprised of:
- a bill facility of $105,882 with a fixed interest rate of 3.84% maturing in
September 2009;
- a bill facility of $2,760,000 with a fixed interest rate of 3.84% maturing in
September 2009;
- a bill facility of $151,266 with a fixed interest rate of 4.29% maturing in July
2009; and
- an asset purchase facility of $30,562 with a fixed interest rate of 9.86%.
The secured bank loans and bank overdraft with the Commonwealth Bank are secured
by way of registered mortgages over the Club’s land and buildings. In addition, the
bank holds an equitable mortgage and floating charge over the stock, plant and
equipment and debtors of the Club. The Club has an overdraft limit of $100,000 which
is unused.
There are a number of conditions placed by the bank over the bank loan facility
provided to the Club. One of the conditions limits the amount of donations and grants
that can be spent as a percentage of net profit. The Club was not able to meet this
condition as it has to meet the Community Development Support Expenditure
requirements which requires a higher level of donation and grant expenditure.

notes to the financial statements. This risk is monitored and managed by management
reviewing financial assets and ensuring collections are made on a timely basis and that
unacceptable concentrations of credit risk are avoided.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009
NOTE 14 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (CONT’D)
The entity’s exposure to cash flow interest rate risk relates to financial assets and
liabilities subject to floating interest rates. These risks arise due to the entity holding
cash and cash equivalents and short term investments. The entity minimises its
exposure by continuously analysing its interest rate exposure and by fixing interest rates
on deposits with banks and short term investments, where appropriate. There have been
no changes in the market risks, methods and assumptions from the previous period.
The following table details the effect on profit before tax and on equity if interest rates
on financial assets and financial liabilities had been 1% higher or lower and all other
variables were held constant. Considering the market outlook and the current interest
rates, management believes a 1% movement in interest rates is reasonably possible.

(c) Net Fair Values
Financial assets and financial liabilities are carried at their net fair value at balance date.
The carrying value of financial assets and financial liabilities approximate their net fair
value due to their short term maturity or market interest rate. No financial assets or
financial liabilities are traded on organised markets in standardised form.
(d) Credit Standby Arrangements
The club has an overdraft facility with a limit of $100,000 (2008: $100,000). At 30 June
2009, the unused portion was $100,000 (2008: $10,537). The club also has a bill facility
with a limit of $3,206,232 (2008: $3,206,232). At 30 June 2009, the unused portion was
nil (2008: $nil).

In
Early December the Swans were pleased to again appoint Heath Russell to the
coaching position for 2009.
The
early appointment of a coach allowed the club to assemble a team that was a
mixture of new and older experienced talent and with pre season training kicking
off mid January the club was confident of making a serious challenge for the
2009 premiership.
Numbers
were very good early and the team started to take form, pre season trials were
held against Harman and Bateman’s Bay, with wins in both trials the coach and
players eagerly awaited the start of the season.
The
team were undefeated through to round 9 and then had two weeks off with a double
bye. Coach Russell was looking to finish off the second half of the season well
and the aim was to finish in the top two so to secure a double chance come
finals.
Nine
straight games to the finals was starting to have an effect on the club as the
injury toll was mounting and the team were starting to struggle to get over
teams they had convincingly beaten earlier in the year.
With
all players lifting and the club pulling together the team managed to remain
undefeated and claimed the minor premiership, finals football had arrived for
the second season in a row for Heath and his team.
A
grand final spot was up for grabs the first week of the finals and the Swans
although weakened with injuries were looking forward to putting up a strong
performance against a committed Gungahlin Jets side.
On
a ground and in conditions that didn’t really suit their fast open running
play, the Swans were out played and muscled by Gungahlin going down by 47
points.
The
injured and battered Swans limped back to Goulburn having to back up 6 days
later against ANU.
The
following Saturday the team faced up against a confident ANU at Dairy Farmers
Park Queanbeyan.
The
Swans who have a close affiliation with the Queanbeyan Tiger enjoyed the use of
Queanbeyan’s change rooms for the day and used the opportunity to fully
prepare for the game.
A
great game ensued with the swans back line holding up in the last quarter to
hold on by five points and through to the grand final at Manuka Oval the
following Sunday.against Gungahlin.
On
the Friday night before the grand final Peter Walker and several swans travelled
to
Swans
David Waters won the leagues leading goal kicker and Dale Cummins Shared the
league best and fairest with Ben Serafin from Yass, a great effort from both
Swans players and a terrific result for country football.
Sunday
was grand final day and a large bus full of players, staff and supporters headed
to Manuka for what would be a classic game.
In
the first quarter a very confident Gungahlin side came out and were intent on
again out muscling and intimidating the smaller bodied Swans.
The
Swans withstood the initial onslaught, gave back as hard as they got and led by
24 points at quarter time. In the second quarter with a strong breeze at
Gungahlin’s back the lead had been reduced and the Swans went to the break
without their ruckman who had a broken collar bone. The lead at the main break
was just three points.
At
the end of the third quarter the Swans had again increased their lead but to
just 11 points. The last quarter saw Gungahlin have last use of the wind and the
Swans knew it would be a battle to hang on, the team rallied and with their run
and quick use of the ball saw them steady and kick the first two goals of the
quarter.
As
expected Gungahlin came back hard but all the players dug deep and the thrilling
final quarter ended with the Swans getting up by thirteen points.
Premiers 2009.
As
to be expected much celebration and jubilation was enjoyed at Manuka Oval, the
trip home, at the Workers club and into mad Monday.
Thanks
to all who travelled over and supported the Swans Grand Final day,
it
was greatly appreciated by all.
Apart
from the premiership some personal milestones were also achieved during the
season.
Steve
Armstrong played his 350th game (combined Goulburn Hawks/ Swans);
this memorable moment was made even more special with Steve playing with both
his sons Brad and James on the day.
Life
Member Jason Gray played his 250 games, Ben Howard also enjoyed 50 games this
year.
Other
highlights for the year included our sponsor’s day where sponsors and friends
enjoyed food and refreshments at the home game against ADFA.
A
large crowd also turned out for Pink Footy day, a pink football was used for the
game, players wore pink socks and lots of other pink clothing was a highlight of
the day.
To
top off the festivities fifteen swans players and supporters had their heads
shaved in front of a large and boisterous crowd at the Workers Club Sports bar.
Michael
Gerakios from the Goulburn Barber Shop gave his time to entertain and clip a few
swans, the club raised over $5500 dollars which was donated to the breast cancer
support network of
A
special mention must go to a very brave Jenny Northwood who also shaved her head
on the night; we would also like to thank Michael and all those who generously
gave money to such a great cause.
The
Swans enjoyed the use of the
The
Swans Football Club has further built on its junior strength fielding an under
14s for the third year and the combined Goulburn/Queanbeyan 16s enjoyed a spot
in the grand final and were extremely brave in losing to a bigger, older and
more experienced Gungahlin side.
Our
Clubstart and Auskick program has been held on Sunday mornings at
The
Swans held its 2009 presentation dinner at the Workers Club on Friday 11th

Goulburn
& Districts Junior
Another
year has passed and again our club continues to go from strength to strength.
This year, 2009, we fielded 10 sides in the Canberra District Junior
Rugby League competition. We had
sides in all age groups from Under 10’s to Under 16’s with 2 sides in Under
11’s, Under 12’s and Under 13’s. A
total of 170 registered players playing in the strong and very competitive
Canberra Competition. We ended up
with 7 of these sides in the semi finals, 4 in the finals and 2 in the Grand
Finals. Our Under 12’s went all
the way and won their Grand Final.
This
year again we ran a local Mini league Competition played at North Park for Under
6’s through to Under 10’s. We
increased the competition to 12 rounds of tackle Rugby League.
We fielded 4 sides in all age groups and combined our Under 9’s and
10’s into a competitive mod league competition.
A total of 172 players are registered in the Mini League in 2009.
Our total registered players for our Club this year is 342 players.
We got all coaches accredited, and had more than 20 volunteers complete a
first aid course to ensure the safety of the kids.
This competition is only going to grow as we will be asking surrounding
districts to field sides in this comp next year.
It is incredibly refreshing watching kids as young as 4 and 5 running
around on a Saturday afternoon playing this great game.
This will ensure the viability of this proud club and the future of Rugby
League in this town. My thanks for
the hard yards that were put in by the volunteers for this competition some of
who don’t even have children involved. I
also wish to thank our referees who did a fantastic job all year.
On
the representative scene from our Under 16’s side we had 5 players, Mitchell
Cornish, Sam Cockburn, Daniel Herden, Matt Worboys and Chris Druitt made the
Canberra Raiders Harold Matthews side. Congratulations
to all these players for their dedication to their sport.
We certainly have a lot of talent coming through our teams and hopefully
get a few more Stockmen juniors playing in the Raiders First Grade side.
The
success of our club is due to a number of reasons, none greater than the help of
all our volunteers who give up their time to help out in all areas of running
the club. We have numerous people
from committee members, coaches, managers, first aiders, water runners,
referees, canteen helpers but to name a few.
I wish to thank you and for the support and encouragement that is given
to the kids both on and off the field. Our
sponsors are also a critical part of our success.
Collectively their contribution helps us to ensure each team can take to
the field in an environment of ever increasing expenses.
I thank these local community minded businesses for their contribution.
The Workers Club as our major sponsor as always is there to help and I
thank the Board and CEO for all they do for our club.
Our club is committed to manageable growth, with an emphasis on fun,
safety and participation and developing what we believe is the greatest game of
all, Rugby League in our Community. Our
future looks very bright.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank past
Presidents Graham Gillespie, and the late Laurie Smith for a job well done.
Thanks to you all.
Bruce Hoare,
President.
The older you get the quicker the time goes.
Well we have had a good year this year and a most enjoyable one.
We won some and lost some, but we had a good time with both sides showing
what sportsmanship is all about (or should be).
I know you all knew Anne Churchill, she was well liked
and popular. The GWC had a Perpetual
Darts Tournament with all the money going to the Cancer Council.
The day was enjoyed by everyone. The
Club, Peter Walker and members really got behind the event, including our
committee and all the people who helped to make it great.
So I will say thank you again. Skye
will be a great President with Craig Brown a real help.
Thank you for putting up with me for all those years.

The Strikers have submitted extensive documentation to
Capital Football including a comprehensive Strategic Plan to outline the key
initiatives and priorities that will ensure the Club’s financial
sustainability in the ACT Premier League, to help the Strikers develop on-field
strength in the short to medium term.
It is with great confidence and enthusiasm that we
embark on our journey towards further on and off the field success.

Ricky Brooker and Matt Tozer Reserve Grade and Gary Price Under 18’s for their
efforts this season. A big thank you also goes to Steve Freebody for his work as
the clubs strength and conditioning coach. The club would also like to thank the
committee and volunteers for their assistance in helping run the club, without
their help the club wouldn’t be where it is today, and finally to all
supporters that supported the club this year Thank you.
At
the annual Canberra Raiders Cup awards night the Bulldogs received many awards
following an outstanding season. The club received the Club Championship Shield

Tigers Dart Team
The
Grand Final played in the McKell bar was very disappointing for the Tigers,
losing six games to one against the Carlton Allstars.
This result gave the Tigers second place in “A” Grade.
With
the singles, doubles, mixed doubles and the Scott Memorial yet to be played I am
sure some Tigers players will feature in the results.
The
members of the GWC Tigers once again wish to thank the Board members, staff,

season, we have made the journey to
All players in the team play club hockey in Goulburn as
well, whether it be in the junior competition, in the senior ranks, or both.
In order to gain higher representative honours in the past, our more
talented players have had to relocate to
The 2009 season was another successful one for our
boys. As a development side, the
ages ranged from 14 to 17 years. With
a few of the more experienced players in the team away at various stages of the
season on rep duties, the team went into the final series in fourth place.
After winning the minor semi-final and the final, the Goulburn Workers
Team came up against St Pats in the grand final.
Unfortunately they fell short of taking out the premiership, but all boys
are to be commended on their effort and sportsmanship, not only in this game,
but throughout the entire season.

U3A
Goulburn Mulwaree Inc.
Thanks to the generosity of the Workers Club in giving
us rooms for many of our classes and the loan of their two mini buses for field
trips, U3A Goulburn Mulwaree Inc. has helped to enrich the lives of many of
Goulburn’s older and disadvantaged citizens.
Classes held at the Workers so far this year have
included the “History of Music”; French & German Language classes; the
“The 4th Tuesday Book Club”; Family History Research Group; Irish
History & Culture; Poetry Appreciation; “Let’s Talkabout” – a
Discussion Group; “Passive Recreation” an afternoon of playing and learning
to play such games as Chess, Mahjong, Rummykub and other board games; Bridge –
where some very serious playing takes place as well as the teaching of newcomers
and “Let’s Explore” which involves bus trips to explore the many
interesting places surrounding Goulburn as well as cultural trips which have
included the National Gallery for special exhibitions, Parliament House and the
Film and Sound Archives.
We also held a party to celebrate our first birthday in
the restaurant in February which was enjoyed by many of our members and last
October, in conjunction with the Workers, we held a 3 day event “The Grey
Mardi Gras” to celebrate International Day of the Older Person.
Again, with the help and generosity of the Workers, we held a 2 day event
for NSW Senior Week in March this year entitled “The Gray Mardi Gras
Encore”. Both these events were
very successful and attracted large crowds to the Club and provided older people
with information on the many services and educational and social opportunities
available to them in Goulburn, particularly at the Workers Club!
The third in our Grey Mardi Gras series is “The Grey Mardi Gras –
Baby Boomers & Beyond” to be held, with the Workers support, to celebrate
this year’s International Day of the Older Person on October 1.
We were very grateful for being invited to take part in
the Combined Sports Raffle which helped boost our Building & Equipment Fund.
We would also like to thank the Management Committee, CEO Peter Walker,
and the staff of the Workers for their patience, cheerful help and interest in
our organisation.
