Steve read his presidents report for the year ending February 2010:
I had been away from the club for some 30 years and it sure felt great to be back and more importantly, have another black sedan to cruise around in with my family.
My first exposure to the club since coming back was when my sons Michael, Daniel and I volunteered to be part of the staff behind the scenes at the FX FJ Nationals at Beenleigh.
We all know that this event has been just the best ever and I was proud to be part of this great event although my part was small as I had came in at the very last moment and as such, all the hard work had already been done.
As we all know, this event took some 2 years to organise and all those members involved must be commended for the truly professional operation.
When I looked back over 2009, I was surprised at the amount of work we have done and listed below are just some of our activities:
Next on the agenda was to move our meeting venue- THE TOOHEY FOREST SCOUT DEN.
While on communication, we have significantly increased the number of members onto email. While we still have a ways to go to get everyone on board, this too has been and excellent way to get the message out.
Looking back through out photo albums, it is disappointing that our run numbers have dwindled and I guess it is in some way the pressures of this busy life we now lead. I would like all members to take a moment and just see if you have the time to be part of the runs we have organised for this year………. I can assure you that you will have a fantastic time!
It was while I was looking through them with my family, I realised that this was a fantastic record of our Club however…….IT WAS LARGELY THE ONLY RECORD OF OUR CLUB.
2 things needed to be done. One was to take good care of this history record and secondly get it all transferred onto some type of electronic form so that everyone could enjoy them. I must say that both Debbie and Shane offered to do this and the result is simply stunning.
To Debbie and Shane, many thanks and I look forward to seeing all the scanned photos on our website in the near future. I would also like to congratulate you both on the outstanding job on renewing the photo albums as well.
Rule changes had been one of them and I thank everyone for all their help and understanding in this area.
What a day! I can not thank members enough for their work to ensure this day was such a success and judging by the amount of cars that attended, people are looking for an event that is professionally run and our Club is just the unit to do this.
Having said that, it was the view of your Executive Committee to resign from the All Holden Day Committee and go it alone with the now new GM ROUND UP. I personally think this is a fantastic idea and I look forward to a massive turnout of all marks built by General Motors.
I am very excited with this new approach and I will be heavily involved here to make the GM ROUND UP the most successful event of its kind in Queensland. You can be assured your Committee is already on the job here and stand by for something very special.
Not only will this event attract a huge number of cars and people, the $5000.00 prize money that is on offer has already made many stand up and take notice of your Club and we are only getting started.
A truly fantastic day and a great member turn out – let’s see if we can keep this type of attendance at the next run.
So, as you can see, it really has been a busy year and I look forward to being part of the Club for some time to come. I would like to thank everyone for their help and advice during my term and I look forward to being an active member of the Club in the future.
Steve Jeffs
President
