SCMS November Luncheon: "Wiener Schnitzel"
Showgrounds Community Men's Shed
12:30 PM – 02:30 PM
I promised to bring some inspiration and recipes back from my recent trip to Austria. And what could be more typical than a traditional "Wiener Schnitzel" with some tasty potato salad? To make it even more interesting, we will pair this with another typical Austrian dessert, an "Apfelstrudel" with whipped cream.  You can Google translate it if you don't understand the German diction, but I'm sure you get the drift - it's going to be super-delicious! To top it all, I have convinced our latest kitchen "apprentice" Andrew Britton to take the baton and use this event as his final "exam" to pass into our ranks of approved SCMS Kitchen Chefs. Going by his obvious skills to bake the most delicious scones for our weekly Thursday morning teas, Andrew is more than ready to execute this task with the support of our established kitchen team members - and I will be there to lend a hand, if necessary! Cost for food will be $15 with beer, wine and soft drinks at standard prices.  As usual, we require pre-payment with your registration.  You will be able to get a credit towards a future event if you cancel at least 1 day before this luncheon. No-shows on the day will forfeit their ticket fee. Members who intend to use a credit carried over from a previous event, please reply to this email and we will book you in.  Please register early to avoid the disappointment of missing this special occasion as the lunch room capacity is strictly limited.  We hope you will join us! Regards, Werner Ribul.

What you need to know about SCAMS
Showgrounds Community Men's Shed
04:00 PM – 05:00 PM
Please come along for our Monthly Meeting where Merinda Willis from WA SamNet will tell us about SCAMS and provide us with some tips on how to protect ourselves, our friends and family. As we all know, ripoffs and frauds are becoming more and more commonplace and sophisticated so we all need to be more vigilant. The WA Government has developed ScamNet as one method of combatting this ever increasing problem. With many types of Scams in the Community, it can be very hard to identify what is legitimate and what is Scam. Spotting scams and learning how to protect yourself, will help you avoid losing vital personal information and money.  WAScamnet has also provided us with the latest information about the recent Optus data breach.  You can check this out by clicking HERE. Partners are welcome to attend his Important Presentation, but get in quick as we have a maximum of 50 attendees. The Presentation will be followed by our Sundowner, with some some tasty morsels from our kitchen and an assortment of drinks for sale as normal. Please note that this Presentation will commence at 4pm.
