Hello members --

The committee wants to reward activity leaders who support our club, and encourage more members to lead an activity.

We are pleased to announce that the club will hold a prize draw at the Christmas Party & the AGM for activity leaders. The prize is a $100 gift card.

Two lovely members have already volunteered to help with organising the Christmas party but we still need assistance on the day with setting up before and clearing up afterwards as well as someone to liaise with the Kokoda cafe before the day to ensure that we have electricity and access to the toilets.

A suggestion was also made that there should be a theme this year though please bear in mind the party is held in quite a public area!!   Or maybe you have an idea for some other way of enhancing the proceedings?

Thanks to everyone who contributed activities for the Spring program (September-November).

All submissions have now been published & can be seen on the ANB website.

-- Richard, Program Coordinator

For those of you not fortunate enough to be able to join us in Burwood for the All Nations AGM last Saturday, you missed out on some great homemade treats and a chance to hear about how your club operates.

Most importantly, the new club constitution was unanimously adopted by those present.  Thanks again to Liam for all your hard work that enabled us to get to this point.

The following were nominated without opposition to form the ANB Committee for the next 12 months:

NEW for this year's AGM.  We've had a book called 'Take a Walk in Southern NSW and the ACT' by John and Lyn Daly donated to the club by the authors.  The  book covers more than 2000km of walking tracks from Sydney south to the Victorian border with outline maps and detailed descriptions as well as a plethora of other information about the National Parks covered in the book.
