JULY 2024 NEWSLETTER
Welcome to what should become an occasional newsletter to all Club members. Generally, I would hope that it gets distributed after each monthly executive meeting.
Our AGM was held on Saturday 29th June. A total of 57 members were present in person, so we were able to transaction the business required. The President’s and financial annual report were adopted. Also presented, verbally, was an update on progress on the covered green project. Members will be relieved to know that Watercare has finally given its approval to build over the major water pipes under the existing carpet greens.
A new executive was elected: President – Brian Jago
Treasurer – Dana Taylor
Ladies Club Captain – Linda Fenton
Men’s Club Captain – Lex Calder
Members – Mark Andrews, Wade Brearley, Eddie Jones and Guy Orr Secretary – remains vacant but urgently needed
The meeting expressed its thanks to Past President Noeline and the retiring members of the executive for their service.
Subscriptions for the new year were set. These are Full Playing Member – $315
First Year Players – $150
Restricted Member – $160
Associate Member – $120 Collegiate Member – $40 Social Member – $50.
Invoices will be sent out in the next few days. It would be enormously helpful if subs were paid promptly.
Enjoy your bowls.
