Don't go pasta these top offers!

Mamma Mia! Throughout May there'll be pasta in the Beat Cafe and Chianti in the wine shop as the Police Officers' Club goes totally Italiano! We start off with a great, free wine tasting in the Reading Room on April 28, which will feature wines from Argentina, Cuba, and, of course, Italy. No need to book, just pop in between 6 and 8 pm and help yourself. Belissimo!

Speaking of wine, it's your very last chance to book a place on a special South American Special Wine Workshop slated for June 9, 16 and 23 from 7 to 9 pm. The course allows you to experience and understand just what it is that makes South America such an exciting wine continent.

Taste the wines at all levels of development, style, status and quality, and receive new and up-to-date information on the developing technology in the vineyards, the wineries and the wines. This course is offered at the special discount rate of $1,400 which includes expert tuition, handouts, and wine. Call Club Reception on 2591-1911.

There's a Kids' Handicraft Class on up-coming consecutive Saturdays - April 29, and May 6, 13, and 20 from 2.30 to 4 pm. Learn paper-clay modelling for just $50 a lesson (includes tuition and materials). Book now at Reception.

In May and June we will be holding free Gym Seminars every Saturday from 2 to 4 pm. Each week will focus on a different muscle group with practical advice on the best exercises and how to do them safely and correctly. There's no need to book, and the seminar will be bilingual.

Thinking of having a major celebration between now and the end of June? Well, the great news is that any function over $10,000 held at the Club in that period will receive a 10% rebate - some extra shopping money for your honeymoon, perhaps! Contact the Club's Assistant Manager on 2591-1930 for details of this fabulous offer.
