30 YEAR THANG SOLO SHOWS * LIVE IN PERSON

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND!

DIESEL T H I R T Y Y E A R S OF ORI G I N A L RE C ORDI N G S 2017 marks 30 years since Mark Lizotte (aka Diesel) literally stepped off the bus after making the Nullarbor crossing from Perth with his band Johnny Diesel And the Injectors.

By 1988, after playing everywhere and supporting everyone, they were poised to impact with their debut album.

Impact they did, winning ARIA’s for Best New Talent and Highest Selling Album. The very same album went on to become the highest selling Australian debut album of all time.

So, what better way to celebrate than with a night that “Rewinds” through the ever-growing body of music spanning a 30-year career to date.

With a career spanning 15 albums, 35 singles and 6 ARIA awards, it will no doubt be a night to remember as Diesel takes to the stage in solo mode, allowing him to roam even further into the “nooks and crevices” of his back catalogue as he trawls through the Highways and back roads that have made him the journeyman of music he is today.

So “get on the bus” and celebrate Diesel’s 30 Year Thang.

Rolling Stones magazine credited the band for keeping the Zeppelin spirit alive This is an authentic reproduction of Led Zeppelin’s ground breaking stage show, so faithfully recreated that original band member, John Paul Jones said that “I never have to worry about touring with my band again.”

This is more than a tribute act, THE LED ZEPPELIN EXPERIENCE capture all of the subtle nuances and mannerisms of the characters they are representing just like actors in a film. Fans who have seen the original band will think they have returned and will have the opportunity to relive the magic. Fans who never had the chance to witness the supergroup won’t believe their luck and will finally get to experience the iconic and ground breaking stage show for the first time.

2018 CHAIRMANS REPORT JOHN WOOD

On behalf of the Board of Directors; Judy Gribble (Deputy Chair), Joy Conroy, Tim Johnson and Michael Duffy – it is an honour to present the 2018 Chairman’s Report for Ettalong Diggers.

Yet again, another great year for the club as we continue to grow and develop. Our most notable achievement this year was our well overdue internal renovations. Unless you have been involved in such a venture, it may be difficult to grasp how much work went into preparing this initiative.

Our operation profit for the 2017-2018 period as indicated in the Ettalong diggers Financial Report was $2,250,363.

Club Membership continues to grow and as of June 2018 we have 27,609 financial members. This year we have six long time members due for fifty-year membership badges. They are; Cecil Tarlington, William Clark, Jeffrey Dick, Neil Evans, John Knock and Raymond McFarlane. Thank you for your longterm patronage and loyalty.

Our Starfish Kids Membership now totals 755 and our newly established Teen Beach Club Membership is 18 and growing.

A key reason for this growth in membership numbers is the friendly, welcoming atmosphere evident in the club. This is something which many members comment on. It is vitally important that we don’t lose this ethos. Our priority is not, and never will be, to increase membership, but rather to ensure that people enjoy and gain from the experience of being a club member.

I’d like to explain what I believe makes our club different; and why we continue to prosper in a rapidly changing environment. Our core strengths is our strong leadership and commitment to community; this is as vital and relevant to us today, as it was when we opened our doors some 70 years ago.

We have always played a significant role in the community. Our CEO, Mr Bill Jackson has an entrepreneurial mindset and values innovation and growth. Bill and his team are constantly out and about engaging with patrons and staff members.

Seeing first hand what’s working and what’s not.

From these insights we are always challenging the status quo and refining our venue.

As a result, we are constantly reinventing ourselves looking for ways to best meet the needs of our changing members. Our culture is one of continual learning. Individually and collectively we value and seek constant improvement. In this rapidly changing environment that serves us well.

04 06

P EN I N S U L A P EO P L E

Some of the innovative ways we look at engaging and exciting our members are with our extensive rangeof entertainment, handpicked by our Entertainment and marketing team to cater for all ages, demographics and tastes. This includes the weekly attendance of award-winning Caricaturist Steve Panozzo. His presence in our family area and is a hit with the children, their families, members and guests all vying of his highly sort after sketches…and we have made this happen at no cost to our members and guests.

fellow Chefs’ and waiters presented a three-course fine dining meal for this special occasion. Thank you, Matt, Anthea and Megan and courteous staff, for making this function a memorable event.

Even though we are a business, I like to think we run it like a family business and that does make a difference. It provides a deeper sense of connection and belonging to our team; and it underpins our community connection. That we genuinely care, shapes culture, behaviour, the customer experience and ultimately performance. We are incredibly proud of our team. They provide an exceptional customer experience. We know that the quality of our customer interactions drives our results, so we invest heavily in coaching, training and development.

Thank you to our dedicated Citation Committee Members consisting of Judy Gribble (Chair), Joy Conroy (Director), Anne O’Donnell (Member’s Representative) and Nathan McColm (Staff Representative) who all volunteer their time for the monthly meetings.

As from May 2018, extensive internal renovations commenced to upgrade the facilities available to our members and guests. On entering the Club, our foyer has had a major facelift with new carpet flowing into our sporting, dining and conference areas. Chicas Sports Bar and Riley’s Bar have had complete makeovers accompanied with modern and practical furniture.

State of the art and modern parents’ facilities are available at the relocated children’s play area. Our Bistro has been completely remodelled accompanied with a new kitchen equipped with the latest technology available.

Under the guidelines of the Club’s Strategic Plan, this project was funded by our capital expenditure program at a cost of $2.4m.

We have many activities available for our members and guests which include morning shows, many sub clubs and health and fitness services.

Details of all daily activities are available in our quarterly editions of the high quality ‘Peninsula People’ Magazine. Our customer friendly receptionist or our Tourist Information Officer Kim Cole will gladly assist in your inquiries.

We recently reached another milestone when our club turned 70 this year and Mr Jackson threw an elaborate special 70th Birthday Party. On entry, guests were treated to a spectacular room and table arrangement prepared by Megan Napier (Material Girlz and staff member). Anthea Johnson, the Club’s Entertainment Manager sourced seven International Acts along with our resident highly acclaimed musicians for the night’s entertainment.

Matt Fayers, the Club’s Executive Chef along with

Our CEO Bill Jackson and the Board of Directors has a commitment of engagement with the community.

This year saw $285,000 being distributed to local charities, service Clubs and sporting groups through the ClubsGrant Scheme.

Ettalong Diggers has a very dedicated Board of Directors and I thank them for their voluntary service to our Club. It is a pleasure to work with a Board making quick and decisive decisions. Our AGM is scheduled for Sunday 28th October 2018 and wish our Directors sitting for re-election all the best.

Ettalong Diggers is a major employer of local staff with 125 employees on full and part-time work. I would like to welcome all staff employed over the last 12 months and wish you a full and productive career with us. Along with our existing employees, you have all demonstrated a strong work ethic with outstanding customer service skills – thank you all.

As the Club has a membership base as at 30th June 2018 of 27,609; we ask our members to review their preferred way of receiving future financial reports and encourage the selection of the email option to reduce the significant associated postage cost.

(TICK YOUR PREFERENCE) Option 1: I elect to receive a hard copy of the financial reports of the Club for _______ each financial year.

Once again, I thank you, our loyal members and guests for your continued patronage of this wonderful Club.

Option 2:

Whilst we should again be proud of what we have achieved this year, we don’t plan to rest on our laurels and the directors are always keen to hear ideas from our members.

MEMBERS VOTE IS IMPORTANT

How can I make a difference at my Club? The very first thing that Members should try and do is attend and participate in your Club’s Annual General Meeting.

As at the end of June 2018 this club had 27,609 members and on average how many do you think attend the Annual General Meeting? You may be surprised to learn that very often we get 35 to 40 members and have to find another 10 to 15 to make up the quorum of 50.

NO QUORUM – NO MEETING! What are you doing on Sunday 28th October 2018 at 4pm – Your Club’s AGM, don’t miss it!

I elect to receive a copy of the financial reports of the Club by email _______ for each financial year. The financial reports are to be sent to the following email address:

Please note: By not selecting either of the 2 above options, the default position is that you are deemed to have elected to access the financial reports via the Club’s Website at ettalongdiggers.com

Stand-up comedian Jimeoin is acclaimed as one of the hottest stand-up comics of this generation - a true comedy master.

He is known and loved for his brilliantly funny wit and charming observations on the absurdities of every-day life.

'Hilarious... It gets no better than this... Brilliant!'

(Time Out).

'Comedy of the highest order... Inspired!'

(Independent).

'Always, always funny' (Herald Sun).

'Jimeoin recalls the familiar at a fantastically silly level, boiling his audience down to a tear-filled, gibbering mess' (Scotland on Sunday).

'Hilarious... If laughter is the best medicine, Jimeoin is a course of steroids... Don't you miss it!'

(Edinburgh Evening News).
