Tina and I joined the members who went on the campout weekend at the Roseworthy museum on the Saturday. This is a wonderful insight into our agricultural and farming past with an extensive display of plant and equipment well maintained by volunteers. Like me several members remembered operating some of the exhibits for better or worse. If you have not been then treat yourself to an afternoon looking at all this collection. After we headed to Nuriootpa where we had dinner as a members group at the Vines Inn on the Saturday night. Sunday saw us travel to the Kalleske family property for morning tea and a tour of the vineyard and winery. Followed by a gathering in Greenock at their Cellar Door for a light luncheon. Unfortunately we had to leave to return home after but I understand that all who made the effort to go enjoyed the campout’ Thank you to the Kalleske family for hosting the day. Also to Ian and Sue Warnes for organising it along with the committee members involved. So now another year has started for our club with the AGM having been held. Thank you to those members who have taken on positions within the club most are the same faces as last year. But with two new extra committee appointments in Allan Pitchers and Ian Warnes. Welcome. We have had our planning meeting and this year will bring in some changes. So you need to keep an eye on your calendar planners in the Con-Rod. We will be holding some of our meetings away for Port Broughton. This is to try and encourage some of our members to get to meetings who are restricted by time and travel. We will be holding at least three of the ten held last year at Port Broughton at other venues. Clare at the Airport Jamestown at the Airport Kadina at the Motor Cycle Club We will be still holding the Blyth movie night in January. Also our Shed night in Clare in February with and another shed day later in the year, Our annual Presentation Lunch will be held at the Kadina Hotel on Sunday 27th August 2017 at 12 noon. We will need to get names and numbers as catering will be limited by the venue seating capacity so please advise ASAP. So please check the dates as there will be a lot on during the year coming. I am looking forward to trying something new at the next meeting for you all. So as always keep smiling Cheers Ian New Members NARC welcomes new member : Tony Milobara who lives at Broadview.
