JOURNAL Contributions for the next Journal should be to the Editor by the end of this month. “I said, ‘I think I hear a funny noise’!” Sports Car World, November 1969 Page 2 September 2016 President’s Report Spring has finally arrived with the promise of some warmer weather after the chills of winter. September is now here and that means that our Swap Meet is almost here. The Swap Committee and our Catering Committee have been hard at work over the last couple of months ensuring that all arrangements are in place for a successful Swap Meet. Rosters have been printed in the last couple of club journals, for both gate duties and catering support. As this is our only fund raising event for the year, we request that you fill your spot on the rosters to ensure that we provide the best possible service for the swap patrons. If you haven’t been allocated a role for the day please contact Lloyd Healey or Anne Podbury as we can always do with additional hands. The funds raised from the swap meet allow the club to provide the facilities that we all enjoy and subsidise the club annual membership fees. Without these funds the membership fees may have to rise or we may need to reduce some of the club benefits. To help reduce the likelihood of any of these actions, please support the club with this event. Recommendations for our annual charity donations will be announced at the October general meeting for your support and consideration. It is not too late to forward a submission in support of a worthy organisation to the committee for inclusion in the list of possible recipients. If you know of an organisation that deserves some financial support, send the written details to the committee in time for the September committee meeting, which is on the 22nd September. Our Annual General Meeting is fast approaching with all positions being spilt, and nominations will be sought for all positions. If you have a desire to become involved with the club in any position and guide the direction of the club, this is your opportunity. Nomination forms will be included in the Journal which need to be completed and returned to the Secretary one week prior to the AGM, which is on 10th November. As I understand some of the current committee member will not be seeking re-election so we will be looking for some new faces to fill the seats. After three years in the Presidents role I will not be renominating, so we will be looking for a new president.
