We have already had one member volunteer to help organise the club Christmas Party on December 1st.  This is very much appreciated.  However it would be good to have another couple of people to help her out. 

It could involve as little as calling the picnic site in advance of the party to ensure we have access to toilets or it could involve as much as ordering and collecting the salads. Whatever you can offer in the way of assistance, the club will be very grateful.

The committee is seeking help to organise the All Nations Bushwalkers annual party that is already booked to be held in Rhodes from 4pm on Saturday 1st December.  Four people would probably be sufficient.

Please contact one of the committee or email club@anbwalkers.org.au if you are planning on coming to the party and think you could help .  The committee has agreed on a budget for you to buy salads and rolls plus any additional party items that you might think appropriate.  

A big thank you to Paul Monaghan who volunteered to be the All Nations Bushwalkers representative at the recent Bushwalking NSW AGM, for which he has already provided a report to this news feed.  

The prelude to the meeting had a talk and some interesting photos from Meg McKone on the West MacDonnells ranges.

This was the first meeting of the new committee with the highlights being:

• Thanks and welcome to new committee members
• Helen will be the ANB delegate for the Bushwalking NSW AGM due to no other volunteers coming forward
• The members will be asked to assist with the organisation of the Christmas party this year rather than the committee being solely responsible

For full details of what took place at the committee meeting, once the minutes are available they will be uploaded to the website and a link circulated.
