President's Report & Club Forum

Welcome all.

First order of business is Judy’s team for next year.  Deborah has put her hand up for Treasurer and Alf will do Membership.  President Elect anyone?  Don’t be shy!

Two things…

One - We can team up with Vicki Taylor to do a Red Hot Chilli Festival.  Looks like the “bones” are already there.  Helen, Sue and Judy are red hot to be the committee.  We need to make some $$$’s from it.

Two - Car Boot Sale at Meridan State College.  RC Currimbin does a huge one.  Additional insurance for stall holders is available through District.  Need a committee…

Deborah called for further items from the floor.

Gerry re Golf Day - So far we have five gold & one silver sponsor and nine teams.  $120 to sponsor a hole.  Profit comes from sponsors but we also need the teams.

Ramp it up guys - we need more.

Alan - Gizo Trip.  There is $62,000 in the account.  Trips last two weeks, the first will be in April with another in Sept.  $2,200 is approx cost per volunteer. Main job is installing 1000 gal water tanks.

Darryl & Genta - Japan Trip - Will be on later due to delayed Cherry blossom season.  Experience the “real”Japan in a capsule hotel?

Bernie - Vocational - looking at a breakfast and tour at the bakery near Woolies
A special “Hi” to you Bernie.  We can carry on our secret communications in the Blog as I am well informed that you are the only one who reads it.

Alan - despite his best intentions as Treasurer, the General Account is “not quite there”
Seafood night?  Movie night?  Rob a Bank? - suggestions welcome

Judy - Mental Health month is October.  Good timing for a Fashion Parade with people needing outfits for Melbourne Cup. Shevita (no - not a breakfast cereal) opposite Spotlight already runs a parade and we could get involved.

Darryl - Melbourne Cup function.

Sergeant Noel kept us hopping as he emptied our pockets

Would you trust this man??
