Events Programme
2009-10 was a vintage year for the Club which enjoyed a growing membership, initiated a host of new porgrammes from Shrinkathon to the District Photo Competition, and co-sponsored the rapid growth of the Positive Parenting programme within and eventually beyond the North Shore.Our new President, Rod Large, has appointed an all new directorship, providing the opportunity for recent members to contribute to the club and refreshing the bureacracy. We are expecting therefore that the Club in 2010-11 will continue the upward trend.
The resurection of the Charity Auction in a new format will provide additional funding for our charitable activities while the golf tournament, now in its third year, will continue to support Positive Parenting. The 2090-10 speaker program provided many memorable addresses - maintaining the standard was thought to be a major challenge but with one of our first speakers being Martin Sneddon, perhaps the challenge will be met. Trivial pursuits, Guess Who is Coming To Dinner, various working bees and the Sunset Club will providing members with an active social life.
The immediate future program includes:
