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.
