Message from the Nomination Committee

We are now in the midst of our bowling season and our annual general meeting seems far away.  However, as we are enjoying the activities and social interactions of our club, it is also the logical time to consider the management responsibilities that make our club the success that it is. Our Board of Directors collectively undertakes the responsibilities and decisions that are necessary to maintain the strength and continuity of that success.

The reason for this letter to you all is to emphasize that the Board of Directors is made up of club members. Members who are willing to step up and donate some of their time and experience to assist in managing the needed decisions and guidance. In November, at our annual meeting we shall need to fill those positions for the coming year.

The Nominations Committee will like to know of any club members who are interested in serving on the Board of Directors now, or, just as importantly, interested in being a potential candidate in a following year and finding out from the existing executive membership what is involved.

The Board of Directors also depends on the contribution of a large group of members with a variety of interests and responsibilities. Within a club the size of our own there will be an amazing variety of talent and experience to draw from. There is a lot of satisfaction in being part of the club’s activities. However you would like to be involved, there will be opportunities.

Below are the positions needed to be filled in November.  Some will have incumbent members willing to continue, others waiting for nominees.  Please let the Nomination Committee members (Trevor Motley, Martin Fereday, Geoff Holland) know of any interest or questions you may have over the next few weeks. Remember that everyone who is now, or has been involved in the club’s management also started with making the first decision. “I would like to help”.

Hi All,

We are a volunteer organization and many people commit a significant
amount of time so that all members can enjoy the game and clubhouse
gardens and facilities.

Some of our new members have signed up as volunteers and I thank you.

We typically reserve Monday mornings (~7.30 start) for greens
maintenance, mow and maintain the grass surrounds and perform routine
pruning of the flower beds and bushes. Just show up and someone will
direct you. We also offer free coffee and treats to the volunteers.

I thought I’d share what we did today and some projects that need
additional help.

Monday morning crew: greens were mowed and rolled this morning. Rose and
clubhouse garden pruned and trimmed. Green surround and guest area grass
cut and edged.

Key Project to be done:

Garden/Rockery areas surrounding the green need weeding and plants and
bushes pruned.

Trees and bushes along Stanford Avenue need cutting back.
Car Park garden needs bushes pruned. (Ask Sandi or Lynne for details)
Mesh Fence needs painting green.
Virginia creeper needs to be cut back.
Cement plant pots in “Rock Garden” need painting and some new life.

Let me know by email if you have a burning desire to take on one of
these projects. I’ll review replies and allocate teams.

Thanks for your attention.

Andrew Adamson

Grounds Director
