Good Afternoon All,
Last week some of our members attended changeover dinners, Simon and Wendy and John and Beryl attended Myrtleford and Geoff and Tess, Mick and Anne, and George and I attended Milawa Oxley. Thanks to you all who attended....talk to the members who went along to other clubs - it's great to compare!
Our farmers market was cancelled last weekend, we pulled the pin when the temperature was forecast to be six degrees and wet. A very wise move and thank you to Terry, John C, who were on standby!
This week we had our monthly Board meeting, good to have Michael and Mick as guests.
Some of the points from the meeting:
We accepted a quote from M.B.S for a pontoon - $9094.00. We are now making application to the Shire for a community grant and Beechworth Community Bank also for a grant.
John Strang to install the security camera with help from Michael, Simon and George. Thanks to ex-member Howard for donating the camera.
John Costello presented a well researched document on a list of concerns we have with Queen Victoria Park for Council to consider. The Board approved of the list and it will now be forwarded on to Council for their consideration. Thanks John for compiling the list.
Honorary Members - It was resolved that Terry Walsh be our only honorary member. Terry's ongoing efforts to assist our Club are greatly appreciated.
New storage cupboard in the kitchen area is to be installed early next month.
Bryan offered to have a meeting at his house at Stanley at a later date. Thank you Bryan and also thanks for the coat rack you have donated and will install in the Hall.
Our first dinner meeting for this year is on Tuesday night at Tanswells Hotel, 6.30 for 7.00. This is a Club Assembly night with the Strategy plan for this year the major discussion. Do you have a project in mind??. Also John Strang is going to present a report of his RFE trip to Brazil.
