Hi Fellows, Another well attended meeting this week. As always Phil McIntosh is enthusiastically seeking new ways to to improve the Gears and Beers Festival. This will be the only opportunity this year to raise substantial funds, so we all need to give Phil our upmost support. Geoff Breust showcased a very successful Year for Wollundry in 2016-17, the year he was President. An excellent job by John Ireland as Sergeant. Sadly his take on the Australian cricket team was fairly accurate. Guest speaker Joy Ross was very inspirational. An informative presentation and easy to listen to. Thumbs up to John Egan for coming up with a new fundraising concept. All the best to you and your committee John. It is satisfying to receive positive feedback from those in the community who we support each year. I received just such a letter this week. It came from the venerable Dr. Grant Bell, Archdeacon of Wagga Wagga Anglican. The funds went towards 80 Christmas hampers and an additional 20 relief hampers. The support from Wollundry was greatly appreciated. There will be a Board meeting on Monday 15th Feb, committee Chairs please get your reports into your respective directors. Diary Dates.
