AGM & TOYS FOR CHRISTMAS

Umina Beach WBC finally held their AGM on Tuesday 16th November 2021. This was deferred from August due to the corona virus lockdown restrictions. It was lovely to see so many members attend for the meeting. 

Last year's minutes were read and confirmed.   Life Member Lesley Swales was asked to take over the meeting and all positions were declared vacant.    As Joan Murphy had finished her term as President,  Lesley thanked her for all the time and work she put in as President over the past 3 years.  Lesley then presented Joan with her Past Presidents badge and wished her well in her 'retirement'.    Lesley then thanked all committees for their work.  The Returning Officer and Scrutineers than explained the voting procedures.    

There was only one nomination for President.  Lesley had much pleasure in presenting our new President,  Gale Hill,  with her badge of office.   Gale then took over the meeting.   

Please go to the OUR COMMITTEE heading for the full 2021-2022 committee.

As we haven't been able to have our usual Birthday/Presentation Day this year it was decided that members could bring toys in to today's meeting.    This year our toy donations went to Vinnies.     There was a great selection of gifts and Peter Smith was delighted to accept them on behalf of Vinnies, expressed his thanks and assured members they would be a great help for their Christmas distribution to children in need on the Peninsula.

2021 JOAN'S PRESIDENTS DAY


                 

On Tuesday 9th November we were finally able to celebrate Joan's Presidents Day which had been deferred due to the Covid lockdown restrictions.     

The club members welcomed Joan with a guard of honour and she was overwhelmed when she entered the auditorium to see the blue & white themed decorations.     After a lovely morning tea those that were playing went out to enjoy their game.    The tables were further decorated to enhance the blue & white theme.     Members of Joan's family, friends from outside bowls, and Men's Club President Tom joined the members for lunch.     

Joan thanked everyone for coming and for their support in her time in office.    

We wish Joan all the best for the future.
