President Michael Nolan - Secretary PDG Jim Hewitson - Treasurer Graeme Lowe
As out going
President I would like to thank everyone for their support throughout the
year, it was really appreciated.
This year
has been very rewarding for both Karen and myself, we both attended our
first Convention which we both enjoyed, and I must say it was an eye opener
in many ways.
Thanks to Jim and Aileen and Don for their support and company during that
weekend, it was much appreciated.
During the
year we have visited three different club's the Port Augusta Change over,
Quorn's 30 year celebration, and the Kimba Change over, our Club was well
represented at all shows and a good time was had by everyone at each event.
At the beginning of my year
as President my Project was to take on the extension of the
Telecommunication Shed at the Mount Laura Homestead. I have found it a very
challenging and at times frustrating. Hopefully in the next couple of months
we can start to make a lot more head way.
Also at the homestead we
have started to help prune all the roses apart from one particular rose bush
which I was told came out with the First Fleet, how true this is I not sure
but it helped by not having to prune one less rose!
As I am not one for
prolonged reports and speeches just reiterating that I have enjoyed the
honour of being your President for the past 12 months and wish Malcolm the
very best and I am sure he will find you as supportive as you have been to
me.
There is one person I have
to thank for proof reading all my reports and altering them to make sense.
Thanks Karen for all your help and patience.
