Annual General Meeting evening

Chaired by President Peter Vossen this weeks meeting was dedicated to the formal business of the AGM. Our five Committee Directors David Gasgoine (Administration), Lynette Stanley (Rotary Foundation), Mike Farrell, absent report presented by Peter Vossen, (Membership), Owen Farmilo (Service Projects) and David Parker (Public Image) summarised the work of their committees and thanked members for their contributions. The Leukaemia Trust and Alex Findlater Trust (managed by Matamata Rotarians) reports were presented by Eric Tanner and Kevin Sing respectively.

 

Finally Peter Vossen presented his Presidents report. A few points.

 

Peter wanted his year to be locally focused on acknowledged the work that saw the completion of the Stanley Farm Walkway, out District Grant project this year. On this project special thanks went to; Kevin Sing, Don Stanley, David Wheadon, Robert Stuart and Owen Farmilo. 

Peter thanked his Directors, as above, and Michelle Tanner (Immediate Past President), Miranda Thomson (Treasurer) and David Johnson (Secretary), and Robert Stuart for an excellent programme of speakers this year and Stuart Wadey for, very prompt, bulletins. Michelle was also thanked for stepping in for Stu and David J while they take leave. 

 

Peter emphasised he wanted a year of "Fun, Friendship and Fellowship" and I think we would agree he has achieved that.

Ever been out and about and needed to contact a Rotarians but did not have their number in your phone. Well, if you have the ClubRunner app you will be 'saved'. David H recently 'found' this app and wanted to share it's usefulness with members. Taken from Michelle's one, here you can see the sort of information you can access. You can find this, and other Rotary apps in your Android and Apple app stores.
