Club Charter

2010 -2011.  
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.

Michael Nolan
President 2010-2011
