SWAN GROUP CHRISTMAS SHOW
The 2022 Swan Group Christmas Show was one for the memory books! This year we celebrated in.... golf style.
 
On the 11th of November, the teams from Coorong Realty, Swan Brothers, Swan Earthmovers and Swan Agri Business went to the Lake Albert Golf Club Meningie to celebrate the end-of-year Christmas party.
 
Directors, Craig and Kerry started us off with a bang! They delivered an end-of-year re-cap, covering our team members, the highlights, accomplishments, laughs and stories from the year.

The day was filled with laughs, perfect weather, good times and good people.


The Swan Group broke into mixed teams and prepared golf carts to battle it out for the "Coorong Cup". Merv from Swan Earthmovers, and a member of the Lake Albert Golf Club, gave us the rundown of an Ambrose Competition and of course, some handy tips.
 
This year the Coorong Cup winners were the Rubble Raisers made up of Narelle Hincks, Jack Kluske, Brad Jeffery and Lyla Jeffery from Swan Earthmovers.



The Swan Group professional golfers spent the day battling it out. But, meanwhile there was also a trivia prize box to be won! Each team was given a list of trivia questions relevant to the Swan Group to answer! The winners of the Swan Group Trivia Competition were Nicki Fegan, Luke Medlow, Sharon Coombe and Jeff Doecke from Coorong Realty.
 
And for a bit of fun, a mysterious NAGA  Award (worst golfers of the group) was judged on performance. Don't worry it was all for fun and no one was offended. The winners were again Nicki Fegan, Luke Medlow, Sharon Coombe and Jeff Doecke from Coorong Realty.
 
To finish off, there was also a Long Drive Competition and Narelle Hincks from Swan Earthmovers came in hot and took the win!


To finish off the day, the Swan Group continued celebrations at Freshies Café and Bar with a delicious cocktail dinner.

Freshies outdid themselves with a gourmet range of oysters, a buffet menu and drinks. Freshies, seriously never disappoint!

We would like to say a big thank you to everyone involved in the preparation and setting up!  Shout out to Mary Verhees and the Lake Albert Golf Club for making the day come to life. And to Dust to Sand Signs & Photography for capturing the special moments!

CHRISTMAS FUN
On the 16th of December Coorong Realty celebrated International Ugly Christmas Sweater/ T-shirt day!
This year we thought we would get a bit creative! Christmas style ๐ŸŽ…๐ŸŽ…
We also had to consider that it could be too hot for sweaters because we live in mighty Australia! So we switched it up by wearing anything Christmas-themed!
We think Nicki and Bec's outfits were great!

CONGRATS ADAM!
Congratulations also go to our General Manager Adam Hurlé for being selected as the inaugural 2023 Coorong Cats Football President!
Adam was instrumental in the strategic work that led to the amalgamation of the former Meningie Football and Netball Clubs with the Border Downs Football and Netball Clubs, This amalgamation resulted in the creation of a new entity. The Coorong Cats.

As the former President of the Meningie Football Club, Adam is well versed in what it takes to lead community through change - and we couldn't be prouder than to have him lead Coorong Realty.
We would also like to congratulate another Swan Group legend Narelle Hincks (Business Support Officer with Swan Earthmovers) who will be leading the 2023 Coorong Cats Netball Club as President๐Ÿ™Œ
Adam and Narelle have been involved in local sport since forever and are big community people! We believe that Adam and Narelle are both outstanding leaders who will steer the Coorong Cats on the right path!
