President’s Report September 2008

To kick off this month's report I'd like to discuss an important issue - that of the future of the club. Next month will see the Annual General Meeting for our club, during which all office bearers will stand down and all positions will be declared vacant and new office bearers will be elected. For those of you who are interested in standing for a position and contributing to your club for the coming year, you need to be aware of the following basic details:

If you are considering or know someone who is considering running for a position as an office bearer (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer) or ordinary member (committee member - the rules of incorporation state that three are to be elected) you MUST nominate for these positions in writing as stated in the constitution (which can be downloaded at: http://www.nswcorvettes.com.au/constitutions.htm ) and submitted to the secretary no later than seven days prior to the AGM. If you have any queries about this process at all please contact myself or any of the committee to ask.

If you would like to volunteer for another club role (Events Coordinator, Editor, Webmaster, Librarian, Stock Controller, Tech Advisor, Club Plate Registrar or GM day Representative - all these positions were listed and their duties described in last months newsletter), these roles can be nominated from the floor on the night - so you don't need to submit a nomination in writing prior to the AGM.

A number of people including myself will be standing down from their roles this year and it seems that the time is upon us for some new volunteers to step up to the plate, this is always a good thing as it brings fresh ideas, enthusiasm and energy to the club.

Onto other matters, it was discussed and agreed at last months meeting that the monthly regional breakfast runs would be alternated between regions from month to month. This month we will try something new in having the Breakfast Run organised by our Southern Representative Gary Lackersteen, heading south (more details in this month's newsletter). This should be a good one so make time for it if you can.

Also this month we will be having our yearly car Show at Hooters Parramatta, as organised by Rusty James. This will be another good one and it will be a good opportunity for us to thank and show our support to a company who as one of our clubs major financial sponsors has been very supportive of our club. It's also a nice show with a late start and relaxed atmosphere. I'm looking forward to it.

Also this month will be Bill Cox's annual run to Tarana Pub, via Mt Panorama - always a good run with some good roads and a nice relaxing atmosphere. Again, details are elsewhere in this newsletter.

Lastly, don't forget our annual major Show and Shine on Pyrmont Bridge on Sunday 19th October, the Northern Long Weekend get together at Urunga on 3-6th October and the Lead foot Challenge Weekend over 1st and 2nd of October. These should all be fun events.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy what this club has to offer you.
Andrew
