President's Report
Tony Coote President
June already!
At this month’s General Meeting on 27th June, we will be inducting 4 new members into our club. Please introduce yourself to them and make them welcome, or invite them along to an activity.
David Antonjuk and I attended the zone 5 cluster meeting on Thursday. Its an information sharing event which is held several times a year with participants from clubs in our area. One great idea to come out of the meeting was “Random”. Try a new activity, sit with different people at a meeting or event. Have a chat with members outside your circle, and the list goes on. The zone will be organising events throughout the year including an Activity Leaders meeting and a Guest Speaker Co-ordinator’s meeting where we can go along and get new ideas from people in our surrounding clubs. There will also be a combined outing, perhaps a wine and cheese later on in the year.
This month I attended numerous activities. The investment group rocketed off to a great start with 19 people going to the first meeting at McLeod’s residence. The bushwalk at Glenbrook was another fabulous day, thanks to all Bob Carritt’s efforts.
And Vivid was again an excellent evening with a very different programme to last year. Lastly, Ten Pin Bowling pulled a record group of 13 bowlers and there were 3 scores over 160!
All our committee and activity leaders are doing a fabulous job. What a great club we have!
I look forward to seeing you at our meetings and activities. Don’t forget to take your camera along!
