[ MESSAGES ]<br />
FROM THE CHAIRMAN<br />
On behalf of the Board of Directors,<br />
we welcome you to the spring edition<br />
of Focus. Over the past month we were<br />
honoured to support our nation's<br />
farmers through the ‘Parma for a Farmer’<br />
campaign with the donation of $1 from<br />
every Parmigiana and Schnitzel sold<br />
across Wests Group Macarthur over the<br />
month of August.<br />
Our efforts aimed to raise enough money to purchase a full<br />
semi-trailer load of hay to support struggling farmers in NSW<br />
via the Rural Aid initiative ‘Buy a Bale’. We are delighted to<br />
announce our success in reaching our truck load target. Our<br />
trailer of hay, worth over $9,500, will be supplying emergency<br />
feed for livestock in the worst affected drought stricken areas of<br />
Australia to save cattle, sheep and horses. We sincerely thank all<br />
who purchased a parma in support of the campaign.<br />
Here at Wests Group Macarthur, we are driven by our<br />
employee’s performance and commitment and through our<br />
rewards program BRAVO, we aim to recognise our helpful staff<br />
through a variety of initiatives and on-the-spot rewards. We<br />
recently awarded our most prestigious annual award, an overseas<br />
study tour, and just last week we farewelled 14 staff, inclusive of<br />
Senior Managers, Duty Managers and Floor staff, to Las Vegas<br />
Nevada, USA. This is just another reason we are recognised as an<br />
employer of choice, and we wish the team a safe and fulfilled trip<br />
to America and look forward to hearing their ideas.<br />
The ClubsNSW Chef’s Table Competition was recently held<br />
at Ryde Tafe where we entered three teams. We are beyond proud<br />
of each team and overjoyed to celebrate with our Country Club<br />
Chef’s, Luke and Guy who were awarded Bronze. The cook-offs<br />
had some fierce competition with the duos’ entrée scoring top<br />
marks out of all dishes on the day. Our team from Lakeside<br />
placed in the top 10 and our team from Wests were recognised<br />
for the only apprentice team in the comp – congratulations to all<br />
our teams.<br />
Sport in our local community is of significant importance<br />
to Wests and we were thrilled to hold the Annual Wests Sports<br />
Council Awards Dinner in June this year. The Awards Dinner<br />
gave an opportunity for local sports stars to be recognised in five<br />
key areas including junior, youth, senior, team and sprit, along<br />
with the Elite Sportsperson and Elite Sports Team of the year.<br />
Congratulations to all nominees and we wish the best of luck<br />
to all winners in their chosen sporting fields.<br />
Warren Thomson – Chairman of Wests Group Macarthur<br />
FROM THE CEO<br />
As the warmer weather approaches and<br />
the winds have settled, we are pleased<br />
to be on track with our development<br />
plans at Country Club Gledswood Hills.<br />
Welcome to the spring <strong>Edition</strong> 4 of Focus<br />
where you can read about our most<br />
recent awards, achievements and exclusive<br />
member specials.<br />
Our present leading project at Country<br />
Club Gledswood Hills is shaping up to be a sensational first-class<br />
social facility, fit with modern features, contemporary fixtures<br />
and dedicated service. We look forward to our members and<br />
guests enjoying the new outdoor terrace with timber panelling,<br />
comfortable furniture selections and open-roofed slats, along with<br />
an island bar to relish the sunset view over the Camden Valley.<br />
A new communal area for the growing number of families in<br />
the Camden region will be constructed, coupled with a dedicated<br />
toddler section, a soft play facility catering to those aged between<br />
5 and 10 years, as well as an arcade centre. We are enthusiastic<br />
to reveal a collection of new dining outlets inclusive of an Italian<br />
woodfire pizza oven, American BBQ smokers and burger station,<br />
shared alongside our signature Brasserie and Café. We are also<br />
very pleased to offer restaurant quality meals at affordable prices<br />
for our members and guests.<br />
From inside to out, Country Club will expand the carpark to<br />
352 on-grade car spots to accommodate our growing patronage to<br />
the best of our ability. Further, we will be also opening an outdoor<br />
beer garden with a large LED screen. We encourage members to<br />
visit the Country Club where our plans are on display, with hopes<br />
to complete construction before Christmas.<br />
There are also a number of additional development projects<br />
across Wests Group Macarthur in the works, which we hope to<br />
be able to share with our members very soon. We pride ourselves<br />
on offering our local community with exceptional experiences<br />
via our four growing destinations, with one membership journey;<br />
ultimately guided by our values of customer focus, teamwork,<br />
respect, integrity and progressive movements.<br />
Last but not least, in efforts to reward our current and potential<br />
members, and afford them the ability to try out our existing and<br />
new dining channels, any member who renews or joins by 31<br />

Chef's Table Bronze<br />
WINNERS<br />
This year’s ClubsNSW Chef’s Table Competition saw club<br />
chefs from all corners of NSW, cook it out for top spot. Wests<br />
Group Macarthur was proud to have three teams as finalists<br />
in the race to chop it like it’s hot, with Bronze awarded to<br />
our team from Country Club Gledswood Hills.<br />
The Chef’s Table Competition is a<br />
ClubsNSW initiative, created to challenge,<br />
reward and recognise the many talented chefs,<br />
cooks and apprentices employed by NSW<br />
clubs. In <strong>2018</strong>, the teams were challenged to<br />
utilise each of the 'Mystery Box' ingredients<br />
to make their entrée, main and dessert, with<br />
each team only having an hour to plan their<br />
menu. The Competition was intense, with<br />
the teams hoping to show off their skills and<br />
creativity in the kitchen.<br />
Showcasing their culinary talents in<br />
the Mystery Box Challenge were our very<br />
own three teams of Chefs including Shane<br />
Pavitt and Emily Andrew [pictured centre]<br />
representing Wests League Club, Luke Risby<br />
and Guy Billitteri dropping the knife for<br />
Country Club Gledswood Hills [pictured far<br />

[ STAFF ]<br />
The Cook-offs were held at Ryde Tafe<br />
on Wednesday 4 July where all teams were<br />
surprised with the Mystery Box ingredients.<br />
The competition was scored by Judge<br />
Chairman and experienced Executive Chef,<br />
Julio Azzarello, along with Masterchef<br />
contestant, Courtney Roulston, Corporate<br />
Executive Chef, Adam Moore, and owner and<br />
founder of The Red Spoon Company, Nenad<br />
Djuric. The scoring was based on menu<br />
structure, techniques, creativity, presentation,<br />
flavour balance and innovative use of all<br />
Mystery Box ingredients with a variety of<br />
prizes on offer for the winning teams including<br />
domestic trips and tours, educational<br />
masterclasses and mentoring programs.<br />
When it was thyme to turnip the beet,<br />
each team did not disappoint, cooking up<br />
a three-course menu using the supplied<br />
ingredients. Country Club Chefs Luke<br />
Risby and Guy Billitteri blew the judges<br />
away with their pork, rhubarb and fennel<br />
ravioli with celeriac puree, zucchini flower<br />
and sage butter. The Ravioli [pictured,<br />
opposite, bottom centre] was the ONLY<br />
dish out of 123 that received a perfect score<br />
from all three of the tasting judges.<br />
Their score from their entire menu<br />
culminated in a Bronze award for the Duo!<br />
Luke and Guy have won an Italianinspired<br />
series of masterclasses in Wagga<br />
Wagga culminating in a hands-on<br />
experience with Italian Chef Melina<br />
Puntoriero from Manuelina Culinary Italy.<br />
The duo will be taken on a culinary journey<br />
of Italy, covering the art of ravioli and<br />
gnocchi. Members and guests of Country<br />
Club Gledswood Hills look forward to<br />
more of Luke and Guy’s delicious cuisine,<br />
with Italian inspiration drawn from their<br />
Masterclass experience.<br />
Petah Jensen and Caitee O’Donnell<br />
represented Lakeside Golf Club Camden in<br />
the Competition and were successfully placed<br />
in the top 10, along with Emily Andrew and<br />
Shane Pavitt representing Wests League Club<br />
who were given a special mention as the only<br />
team of Apprentices in the Competition.<br />
On behalf of Wests Group Macarthur<br />
Directors, Management and Staff, we<br />
would like to pass on our Congratulations<br />
to all teams involved and are very proud of<br />
each Chef's effort, commitment and overall<br />
results. Well done.<br />
“We are so<br />
proud of Luke and<br />
Guy’s results in this<br />
competition, however,<br />
we are not surprised<br />
considering our<br />
Members, Guests and<br />
Staff get to enjoy the<br />
beautiful and creative<br />
meals these two Chefs<br />
create every day at<br />

Wests Group Macarthur [ 25 ]
Local funds, for local projects<br />
Wests Group Macarthur is proud to support the wonderful work of a number<br />
of very deserving community organisations with nearly $25,000 worth of<br />
funding provided via the local ClubGrants Campbelltown Committee.<br />
All recipients expressed their excitement<br />
and gratitude towards the support from<br />
Wests recently on Wednesday 1 August <strong>2018</strong> at<br />
the local ClubGRANTS funding presentation.<br />
The recipients of these grants were<br />
Campbelltown Cyber Seekers, Eternity Aid,<br />
Foster Care Angels, Top Blokes Foundation,<br />
White Lion Youth Agency and Camden High.<br />
Cyber Seekers [pictured, below left] will be<br />
using the recent Grant to upgrade computer<br />
systems and virus programs, in efforts to<br />
protect current resources and to continue<br />
helping seniors learn digital skills. Eternity Aid<br />
[below, second from left] are planning to train<br />
additional staff for the enriching Life Skills<br />
Mentoring Program within the Reiby Juvenile<br />
Justice Centre to improve skills such as literacy<br />
and numeracy. Foster Care Angels will be<br />
utilising the grant for the purchase, training<br />
and upkeep of a therapy dog.<br />
Top Blokes Foundation will direct funds to<br />
the program implemented at local schools with<br />
a purpose to reduce anti-social behaviour and<br />
offer positive role models aiming to change<br />
young boy’s attitudes and behaviours in a<br />
dramatic way. White Lion’s [below, second<br />
from right] RISE program offers learning<br />
support to young people in the Claymore area<br />
and will benefit from new technology to assist<br />
students in Technology, Science, Engineering<br />
and Mathematics. Camden High School<br />
[below, right] will direct the recently received<br />
money into technology resources for students<br />
with special educational needs.<br />
ClubGrants is a state wide initiative<br />
that recognises the contributions of<br />
local Clubs within local communities<br />
and the financial support Clubs offer<br />
for the funding of community led<br />
projects. The local ClubGrants scheme is<br />
overseen by both Campbelltown Council<br />
and Sector Connect with committee<br />
members including Wests League Club,<br />
Campbelltown RSL Club, Campbelltown<br />
Catholic Club and Ingleburn RSL Club,<br />
where together over $3 million worth<br />
of funds were donated to the local<br />
community over the past 12 months.<br />
The presentation was a wonderful<br />
opportunity for ClubGrant recipients<br />
to present the projects currently being<br />
worked on and the benefits these projects<br />
will bring to various sectors of the<br />
Macarthur area.<br />

[ COMMUNITY ]<br />
Helping Macarthur's hidden<br />
HOMELESS<br />
This Do Something Day, we partnered with Macarthur Homelessness Steering<br />
Committee and One Meal in efforts to support the growing number of hidden<br />
homeless in Macarthur, with our Group acting as a drop off point for supplies,<br />
donating a further $5,000 and volunteering our time to those in need.<br />
Wests Group Macarthur recently partnered<br />
with Macarthur Homelessness Steering<br />
Committee (MHSC) to support 100<br />
families in the local region suffering from<br />
homelessness or living in temporary housing.<br />
The campaign encouraged staff, members<br />
and guests to donate much needed household<br />
items from Wednesday 27 June to the official<br />
Do Something Day, Wednesday 25 July.<br />
A cheque for an additional $5,000 was<br />
also presented to MHSC on the official<br />
Do Something Day to go towards those less<br />
fortune and in need.<br />
The MHSC is a subcommittee of One<br />
Door Mental Health in the Macarthur Region<br />
and is established as a network of community<br />
services and Government Organisations.<br />
It is dedicated to address the vicious cycle of<br />
homelessness with the desire to alleviate the<br />
plight of homeless people and has become the<br />
key objective of the Group.<br />
Wests Group Macarthur staff also gave their<br />
time and volunteered to assist One Meal in<br />
supporting the homeless by serving up hot<br />
meals created by our Chefs for 40 people in<br />
need in our local community. One Meal is a<br />
not-for-profit community organisation that<br />
help to feed, clothe and support the homeless<br />
and underprivileged in the local region.<br />
Homelessness across Macarthur does not<br />
always present in the obvious way. There are<br />
the hidden homeless including couch surfing,<br />
overcrowding and families living in vehicles<br />
for extended periods. When all other avenues<br />
have been exhausted the MHSC and One<br />
Meal organisations are there to support those<br />
who are homeless or at risk of becoming<br />
homeless in Macarthur.<br />
The campaign was an overwhelming success<br />
with donated items collected including<br />
blankets, bed linen, warm clothes, living<br />
essentials, towels, kitchen essentials such as<br />
toasters, utensils, dinner sets, cutlery sets,<br />
glassware or even tents, plus a total of 15<br />
hours’ worth of combined volunteering time.<br />
All items and time were gratefully received<br />
and distributed to families when they are<br />
homed from homelessness.<br />
