August Update

[John]

Run Day

Our next run day is this Sunday 17 Aug commencing at 9:00am. As it is going to be a cold one, we will run at the practice lake which will save me having to get up too early to set the buoys on the main lake.

Fund Raising Sausage Sizzle

Mal from Toyworld has offered the opportunity for the club to run a sausage sizzle at a promotional sale they are having on the Bathurst Race weekend in Oct (12 Oct I think – will confirm). This will be great opportunity for the club to get some funds together to purchase some of the equipment we need. This will need support from club members to lend a hand throughout the day. I’ll send out more details once we get things a little more organised, so just kept the day in mind for now.

Annual General Meeting (AGM)

A reminder that the Club will hold it’s AGM on Saturday 30 Aug at 11:00am at the Queanbeyan Leagues Club. The committee elections will be held at this meeting so if you want to nominate yourself or another member for a committee position, please do so in writing to me (email is fine). If any member has an agenda item they wish to be discussed at the AGM, pass the details to me no later than 5:00pm 24 Aug 08. I will issue the agenda for the meeting on the evening of 24 Aug via email. All members are encouraged to attend the meeting to have a say and then join in for lunch at the bistro.

Agenda items so far:

• Committee Elections
• Purchase of Rescue Boat
• Purchase of Generator
• Format for Run Days
• Run day Calendar for 08/09
