Dear Members,

For those not aware, I am both pleased and proud to announce that the Club was voted BEST FUNCTION/CONVENTION CENTRE CATERER, at the 2015 Restaurant & Catering “Savour Awards for Excellence”. This accolade is acknowledgement of the hard work and dedication of our entire Team and their commitment to maintaining the highest quality of service to our Members. None of this would be achievable without your continued encouragement and support, so please accept my sincerest thanks on behalf of the whole Team.

The Festive season is fast approaching, so I would like to remind you that the Club has a range of fantastic year-end party packages available, catering to groups both large and small.

If you are in search of a special Christmas present for your loved one this year, you may want to consider gifting them with Club Membership. With no joining fees attached, your spouse will receive full membership privileges, allowing them to enjoy the Clubs facilities independently. Please contact reception for further information.

Throughout the next quarter the Club has a variety of activities planned, including the last in this years’ series of Breakfast by the Bay, Melbourne Cup lunches in both the Banquet Hall and Club Café, a Christmas Karaoke Night and Members’ Christmas Barbecue; as well as the ever popular First Friday Jazz Nights in the Club Restaurant.

All the above events are expected to be popular, so please book early to avoid disappointment. However, if you’re simply searching for somewhere nice to catch up with friends before year-end, you may want to consider treating them to Saturday High Tea. Bookings are essential and can be made at reception.

As with last year, the Club will once again be supporting ‘Operation Christmas Child’. This is a unique project that brings joy to children in need through the donation of a simple shoebox filled with gifts. Last year we collected close on 200 boxes, which we are hoping to do the same this year. More details and boxes will be available from reception and as with last year, all those returned before the 29 October will receive a $10.00 Café voucher, in thanks of their generous donation.

I look forward to seeing you at your Club very soon.

Literary High Tea

Saturday 31 OctoberPeter Kennedy Tales from Boom Town

Veteran political journalist

Peter Kennedy has spent more

than forty years observing

politics in Western Australia

across an extraordinary period

of change in the State’s

history, from 1970 to 2013.

His insider’s account reveals

first-hand the issues linked

with changes to the social

fabric of Australia; the

jailing of two premiers and a

deputy premier; the ruthless

removal of a premier mid-term; the election of the nation’s

first female premier; and the sensational ‘WA Inc’ Royal

Commission.

Kennedy interviewed widely to make this account of how

the boom–bust West was led into its status as an economic

powerhouse of the twenty-first century.

His interviewee’s included Premiers Brian Burke, Peter

Dowding, Carmen Lawrence, Richard Court, Geoff Gallop

and Colin Barnett, and also federal leaders and ministers,

including Malcolm Fraser, John Howard, Paul Keating,

Graham Richardson and Malcolm Turnbull.

Saturday 28 NovemberSusan Midalia Feet to the Stars: And Other Stories

Feet to the Stars, Susan

Midalia’s third collection of

short stories, offers keenly

observed details about

everyday life expressed

with pathos, tenderness and

bracing wit.

Subtly rendered and

emotionally engaging,

these stories speak of the

transformative capacities

of the heart and mind, and

of the ways we affect each

other, sometimes unwittingly and often profoundly. They

offer us the pleasure of listening to different voices, and

the satisfaction of careful crafting and evocative prose.

Susan Midalia is a Western Australian writer and freelance

editor who conducts workshops on short story writing.

Susan studied at the University of Western Australia and

Cambridge University and holds a PhD in contemporary

Australian women’s fiction.

These books will be for sale at a discounted Members’ rate at University Club Reception during october and November.


12 THE CLUB


What’s on

on the grapevine formal wine tastings

Forest Hill Date: Wednesday 4 November

Forest Hill is a proud family-owned winery creating

exciting wines of the highest quality.

Each is made to be a true reflection of the premium

Western Australian grape-growing region of Mt Barker

in the State’s Great Southern region expressing unique

regional and varietal characters combined with finesse,

elegance and definition.


Vasse Felix Date: Wednesday 7 October

Vasse Felix was established in 1967 and is Margaret River’s

founding wine estate.

Vasse Felix produced Margaret River’s first Cabernet Sauvignon

at the estate in 1972 and the wines maintain a reputation as

regional and national benchmarks.

Founder Dr Tom Cullity searched the region relentlessly for

his first vineyard site, before selecting 8 acres in Wilyabrup,

which today remains at the heart of the Vasse Felix Estate.

Vineyard expansions have been made with equal consideration

and an unwavering commitment to Cullity’s simple founding

aim: “to make the best possible wine.”

All winemaking from vine to bottle is controlled within the

estate. Fruit is harvested, fermented and matured in small,

separate parcels before each barrel is graded, trial blended

and allocated to its final wine, working from the Icon wines,

through the Premier, Filius and Classic tiers.

Everyone is welcome to visit the Vasse Felix Estate, which is

regarded as one of Australia’s draw-card winery destination

experiences and includes a restaurant, cellar door and art

gallery.

Join us each month for our formal wine tasting where a selected vineyard, wine style or region will be showcased by a winery representative. The wines sampled will be complemented by a selection of delicious ‘bites’. Make a night of it with our Tasting and Dinner package where you will enjoy the wine tasting followed by a two-course dinner in our award-winning Club Restaurant.

Time: 5.30pm–7.00pm Venue: Private Dining Room Price: $30.00 formal tasting only or $77.50 formal tasting and dinner package

The Forest Hill philosophy is to make wines of the highest

quality, each having its own distinctive regional character.

Forest Hill follows the practice of having an unirrigated

vineyard, producing low-yielding harvests which give

maximum fruit quality and hence flavour intensity. With

their own winery facility in Denmark and passionate

winemaking team in place, they control all aspects of

the winemaking, allowing the Forest Hill identity to be

maintained and monitored. This ensures all Forest Hill

wines are made with dedication to their philosophy and a

determination to produce premium quality, unique wines.

THE CLUB 13

Devil’s Lair Hosted by Luke Steer – Senior Winemaker

Date: Tuesday 27 October

Quintessential Margaret River, Devil’s Lair offers

beautifully crafted wines that express the distinctive style

of this renowned winemaking region and the singular

combination of geography and climate that is unique

to Devil’s Lair.

Led by the recently appointed Senior Winemaker Luke

Steer, the team at Devil’s Lair produce beautifully crafted

wines including the highly regarded Devil’s Lair Margaret

River Chardonnay and the Devil’s Lair Margaret River

Cabernet Sauvignon.

Luke, who joined Devil’s Lair in July, grew up in the

Coonawarra wine region of South Australia and, as

a fourth-generation local, it’s not surprising that he

developed a desire to craft wine from a young age.

Luke worked his first vintage while still at school in 1996

and his second vintage at Wynns Coonawarra Estate.

From 2002 to 2004 he worked in McLaren Vale, while

studying oenology at Adelaide University, and went on

to complete vintages in Coonawarra, Bordeaux and the

Barossa Valley.

The University Club’s monthly wine dinners offer an evening filled with fabulous wine which is complemented by a stunning three-course menu specifically designed to match each wine. Usually hosted by the winemaker or representative from the label being presented, these wine dinners offer excellent value and guarantee a great night out.

Time: 7.00pm–10.00pm Venue: Club Restaurant Price: $99.00

on the grapevine wine dinners



In 2008, Luke became a winemaker at Wynns where he was

responsible for crafting the finest expression of Coonawarra

each vintage, in particular its hero variety Cabernet

Sauvignon. While at Wynns, Luke enjoyed juggling the

challenge and demands of vintage, refining his winemaking

skills and appreciating the region’s unique characteristics. In

2013, Luke was awarded the Wine Society’s Australian and

New Zealand Young Winemaker of the Year.

In 2015, Luke sought a new challenge. Having appreciated

Margaret River Cabernet for many years, Luke was delighted

to take up the position of Senior Winemaker at Devil’s Lair.

This new role of Devil’s Lair Senior Winemaker is allowing

him to expand his skills in winery management, further

cultivate the team and family-like culture of the winery,

and work more with Chardonnay.

Stylistically, Luke believes the Devil’s Lair wines are set to

soar. He is looking forward to better understanding Margaret

River’s subregions, embracing a different style of Cabernet,

immersing himself in Chardonnay and continually ensuring

that the small details of exceptional winemaking are met

in order to ensure the quality of each vintage.

Events

Date: Wednesday 28 October

Time: 7.00am–9.00am

Venue: Banquet Hall

Price: $52.00 Price includes a two-course breakfast and presentation by author and ABC journalist Kerry O’Brien.

Join Kerry O’Brien for breakfast as he gives us an

insight into his latest publication, Keating.

Keating is the story of Australia’s 24th prime minister,

Paul Keating, in which O’Brien paints a portrait unlike

any other.

At this breakfast Kerry will discuss the collaboration

that brought about this unique work and how he

gathered an enormous bank of new material, gleaned

during many hours of conversation and interviews

with Keating, to create an all-encompassing portrait.

Kerry O’Brien captures the hallmarks of the man —

the nimble mind, the wit, the sweep of vision, the

ruthlessness and the stubborn drive for power —

as Keating explains the historic events, back-room

stoushes, and moments of drama and pathos that the

political world inevitably holds.

Presented in association with the City of Perth Library.

Book sales and signing will be available.

An electrifying rock musical of familial proportions.A Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award–winning rock musical that has enthralled audiences on Broadway and will be a first for Perth.

Meet Diana Goodman, a loving wife and mother who wants nothing more than for her husband Dan and their two children to get along like one big happy family. But in a seemingly perfect suburban neighbourhood, their struggles, like most families, are anything but normal. They test and mock each other at every turn – but how are they meant to cope when one of them suffers from hallucinations?

Filled with music, fun and pathos, this play revolutionised the genre and is the most critically acclaimed musical since Rent.

Featuring songs like “My Psychopharmacologist and I”, “Didn’t I See This Movie?”, and “Superboy and The Invisible Girl”, this world-class production is the prescription you need for the ultimate in contemporary music entertainment.

WARNING: Contains strobe lighting, coarse language, simulated drug taking and sexual references.

Community Links

Rotary of CrawleyThe university Club has been home to the

rotary Club of Crawley (rOC) since it was

established a little over five years ago.

rOC was established with a modern and

innovative approach on the 110-year-old

international service organisation. rOC’s

Patron is the current Vice-Chancellor of

the university of Western Australia

Professor Paul Johnson.

RoC upholds Rotary’s core objective

of “Service Above Self” incorporating

community service and fellowship, which

play an integral role in bringing the RoC

community together. Regardless of members’

backgrounds, ages or financial status, the

spirit of giving resonates loudly here.

Two thirds of our members are under 50

years of age and include business owners,

senior and middle managers, and students.

Fields of expertise encompass a diversity of

occupations from engineers to fundraisers.

It is this eclectic mix of skill and life experience

which creates stimulating conversations

and exchanges of opinions each Thursday

morning when RoC meets for breakfast at

7.00am. Members and their guests arrive

and make a bee-line for the coffee station,

greeting one another with large smiles, hugs

and handshakes. Regulars sometimes pick up

conversations from where they left them the

previous week and guests arriving for the

first time are welcomed and looked after.

At 7.30am our official meeting commences

in the dining room with an enthusiastic

MC welcoming all before handing the

microphone to the President of the Club

who outlines the agenda for the day. Usually

there is further networking over a delicious

breakfast, followed by an inspirational

presentation by a guest speaker, updates

from various club members regarding the

community projects they are working on

and invites for people to volunteer and

assist. The energy is palpable with ideas and

chatter and by the time the meeting ends at

8.30am sharp for those to move on to work

or University study, others may plan to meet

up with other members to discuss projects

that they are collaborating on.

RoC members also enjoy a social connection

outside of the weekly meetings, supported

by a program that includes after-work drinks,

dinners and the occasional art exhibition

often at the University Club. Many of its

younger members also participate in one-

on-one mentoring sessions with senior RoC

members, helping them with personal and

career goals.

RoC loves to welcome new guests and

prospective members to the club so why not

come along and see what we are all about.

registerTo register for the Thursday breakfast meeting, please confirm attendance by 4.00pm on

the preceding Monday or, to find out more about the Club, visit www.rotarycrawley.org

7. Preheat the oven to 180°C fan forced.

8. Spread butter over the turkey and season with salt and

pepper.

9. Place the turkey on a rack in a large roasting pan and

according to your calculated time.

12. Baste the turkey every 30 minutes with its pan juices and

remove the foil for the last 30 minutes to brown.

thigh; if the juices run clear then the turkey is done.
