A Message from the Committee

I URGE YOU TO CONTINUE TO FREQUENT OUR WONDERFUL RESTAURANTS, WHICH TRULY DO OFFER SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE, FROM THE MOST CULINARY ADVENTUROUS AMONG US TO THE NOSTALGIC DINER IN SEARCH OF A TASTE OF HOME.

Dear Members,

First of all, I would like to thank all of you for your wonderful support of the Club in these recent challenging years. We are now back to a semblance of normality which means that many of our beloved annual events can resume after a hiatus of two years!

In this spirit, I do hope you enjoyed our recent Swiss Club Summerfest on 4 June 2022. Not only was it a fun-filled day for all ages, but it also served to introduce many prospective Members to our beautifully refurbished Clubhouse. Congratulations to all involved in the meticulous planning and execution.

As your Treasurer, I am especially pleased to share that the annual Swiss National Day celebration will take place for the first time since 2019 on 6 August 2022. This epic event not only generates a healthy stream of revenue for the Club, but reinforces our reputation as a true pillar of the Swiss community. We look forward to sharing this very special day with everyone. If you haven’t already done so, book your tickets for what promises to be a wonderful evening of culture, food, music and festivity.

You’ll be happy to hear that the ongoing renovations of the Pavilion are progressing well and should be tentatively completed by the end of July. Our new gym and studio have reopened, with most of the equipment already delivered. All of the equipment is brand new, and the changing rooms now sport a modern vibe. The function rooms have been fully refurbished and would make ideal venues for birthday parties, meetings, AGMs and corporate events. In addition, the outdoor fitness area has been relocated to create an integrated fitness area at the Pavilion. Do make full use of these upgraded facilities –I am sure you will agree that they have definitely been worth the wait.

It is my duty as Treasurer to inform you that we have made the difficult but unfortunately necessary decision to increase our F&B prices. Hence you will notice incremental increases across our menu items. We have endeavoured to keep these increases as modest as possible and thank you in advance for your understanding. I urge you to continue to frequent our wonderful restaurants, which truly do offer something for everyone, from the most culinary adventurous among us to the nostalgic diner in search of a taste of home. I personally recommend the Sustainable Barramundi Fillet.

Here’s to a physically and financially healthy and happy second half of 2022. See you at the Swiss Club!

Yours sincerely,

D. Schacher
