PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Dear Fellow Members, I am now more than 16 months into my term as President of our magnificent Club. Whilst this is the Club’s first magazine for 2017 we have supplemented this with a new “Club Chat” communication. This will now be a regular communication of matters and events involving your Club. From a financial perspective, your Club is currently generating substantial cash flows from its accommodation operations in line with the current boom in occupancy in the Sydney CBD hotel market.

EXCITING EVENTS

"The first Dine and Wine Tasting event of 2017, held in Cello’s on 1st March, was a resounding success. 72 members and guests enjoyed a delicious lunch, accompanied by some Tyrrell’s wines and an intriguing story told by Bruce Tyrrell of the history, present, and future of Tyrrell’s Wines."

PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Dear Fellow Members, his is the last occasion on which I shall be reporting to Club Members in this magazine. I do so with mixed feelings. I joined the Board in December 2001 and served firstly as Convenor of the House, Supply and Staff Committee and then as Vice President. After Bill Wright was last hospitalised in September 2004, I chaired meetings of the Board and the next Annual General Meeting as acting President until the next election. I was elected as President in 2005 and have served in that office continuously since.

PRESIDENT’S REPORT

Dear Fellow Members I must begin this report on a sad note by reporting to you the death of one of oldest members, Neville Adam. Neville passed away on 15th September, having joined the Club in 1946. He was a most active member and a regular attender. He was for some time President of the Touring Group and an active member of the Veterans’ Association. He was a man of fixed habits and had his favourite table in Cello’s. The Club and two of its Sub Clubs were represented at the funeral by Nick Matis. Vale Neville. Download
