Committee meeting feedback

Prior to the June general meeting, your committee met as usual. There were 2 main outcomes:
  1. A date of 7th August was set for the AGM at Blackrock Yacht Club. A formal notice will be posted in the Age and an Agenda and voting paper will be sent to all members. It will be followed by a guest speaker as usual. Please put this date in your diary and if you have ideas on the direction of our club, give consideration to possibly joining the committee...
  2. We have tentatively set the dates for SOMR 2008. We are proposing we follow the same format as this year which is the week immediately prior to Geelong week. A letter will be sent to all last years participants seeking ideas on how we can improve the regatta for this year. The provisional timetable would be
  • Sat 19 January... Race 1 in afternoon
  • Sun 20 January... Races 2 and 3
  • Mon 21 January.. Races 4 and 5
  • Tue 22 January... lay day for resails if needed
  • Wed 23 January... Race 6 in Morning followed by Afternoon / Evening prizegiving
  • Thu 24 January....Sail around to Martha's cove
  • Fri 25 January......Geelong week commences with Martha to Melbourne race
  • Sat 26 January.....Australia day passage race from Melbourne to Geelong
  • Sun 27 and Mon 28... Geelong Regatta
