INDULGE…
2019 AUDI CENTRE TOOWOOMBA WEETWOOD AT CLIFFORD PARK
As Chairman of the Toowoomba Turf Club it is my immense pleasure to welcome Members and guests to our premier race experience. The 2019 Audi Centre Toowoomba Weetwood
race day will again prove to be a highlight of the region’s social and racing calendars. For 129 years our region has celebrated our unique lifestyle with our classic mix of country racing
charm and sophisticated city indulgence. This year’s event will continue this trend, with our reserved dining areas a key focus.

Under the direction of our new chef, the menus for our premium reserved areas have been redeveloped to ensure our food offering and service better meets the expectations of our
Members and guests. We have included a couple of our menus in this information brochure to illustrate our focus on this important part of our premier race day.

Over the past 18 months, our team has been busy delivering much-needed improvements to our facilities and furnishings. Our new Clive Berghofer Grande Atrium will again serve
as our premier ‘sit-down’ dining option. I encourage you to reserve your place in this space early to avoid the disappointment of missing out. Additionally, over 1,000 new items of
                                    furniture have arrived at Clifford Park and will help us to ensure all guests at this year’s event will enjoy the race day in greater comfort.

                                     Once again, the Audi Centre Toowoomba Weetwood will host a week full of activities to celebrate racing in our region. These include our
                                     ever-popular TAB Weetwood Golf Day, the family fun of the Breakfast with The Weetwood Stars community breakfast, the Barrier Draw and
                                     Weetwood Mass.

                                     Following on from our hugely successful sportsman’s lunches recently held in Clive Berghofer Grande Atrium, we again look forward to the
                                     TAB Weetwood Calcutta Sportsman’s Luncheon – featuring former Queensland Maroon and Kangaroo champion Brent Tate. Over 200 guests
                                     delivered a record Weetwood Calcutta prize pool last year, let’s see how high we can get this year!

                                     I encourage you to make your plans with friends early and secure your ticketing. Not only does this ensure you avoid the disappointment of missing
                                     out on your preference, it also allows our chefs and event team the best opportunity to plan for your attendance.

                                     So, please join us for the indulgence of the 2019 Audi Centre Toowoomba Weetwood at Clifford Park. It’s an event in our region’s calendar simply

Don’t miss your chance to hear the amazing story of one of Australian racing’s most respected
former race callers, John Tapp OAM at this year’s much-loved event. Tappy called over 50,000
races and worked as a racing broadcaster for during his illustrious career. This is his first-ever trip to
Toowoomba and he’s excited to witness Clifford Park’s biggest race day of the year.
Also on the bill is NRL premiership player Brent Tate. Tate is one of the toughest men to play rugby
league, playing 229 first-grade games for the Broncos, Warriors and the Cowboys. Then there’s the
23 State of Origin games during the era of Queensland dominance. What would have been career-
ending injuries for most blokes, Tate endured and kept coming back!
