The Club’s AGM was held last night with President Greg in the Chair. The attendance was dismal, but the power outage would have contributed no doubt, but the report was good.
Gary Pollard, the Men’s hard working, diligent Club Captain stepped down and has been succeeded by Alan Pell.
Our sincere thanks go to Gary for his outstanding contribution in this role over many years …and to Alan, for stepping into the role. Alan has made it clear that he will be asking for, and needing all Club Members to take on a small role and help him out wherever possible.
W
ith ever increasing costs those at the AGM resolved to raise Membership fees by some $10 per player and bar prices have also had a small increase to help balance the books next year.
