North Lakes Sports Club is set to celebrate its first birthday this weekend, with a huge line-up of gifts for members and guests including free entertainment, special member discounts, giveaways and of course birthday cake.
Since opening its doors to members and the public in May last year, General Manager Chris Sartori said the club has welcomed over 30,000 new members.
‘The response from the community has been outstanding,” Mr Sartori said.
“Our initial forecast was for 12,000 members in the first 12 months. We reached that total within two weeks!
In addition to its 30,000 strong membership base, the club has also recorded some impressive numbers during its first twelve months of operation:
Over 100,000 visits to the club from members and guests
171,000 meals freshly prepared at Banyan Restaurant & Deck
38,500 barista made coffees sold at Crave Café & Bar
722 Explorers Kids Club members
“We’re also really proud of the contributions that the club has made to the community, by creating employment for over 120 full-time, part-time and casual roles and our community donations which have totalled over $72,000.
Mr Sartori said members and guests should get ready for a weekend of celebrations.
“Our birthday weekend kicks off this Saturday night with the free Killer Queen tribute show.
“The show is one of Australia’s best tribute acts with front man Johnny Blunt covering all your favourite Queen songs such as Bohemian Rhapsody, We will Rock You, Under Pressure & We Are The Champions.
“Entry is free and there is no reserved seating in the Discovery Lounge, so we’re encouraging members and guests to arrive early as seating is limited.
“We’ll be offering a special express dinner menu through the Discovery lounge with a choice of two dinner specials for just $15 for members or $17 for members, plus Banyan Restaurant & Crave Café will be open as usual.”
Then on Sunday, the official first birthday celebrations will take place.
“There will be free live entertainment all-day from 11am to 9pm, a balloon artists from 12pm to 3pm, mega raffles from 1.30pm and of course free birthday cake at 2pm.
Members will also enjoy a $4,000 cash giveaway, 10% of the already discounted members prices throughout the day, while a $10 members express lunch special will also be available at the Discovery Lounge.
