OUTGOING PRESIDENT’S REPORT
Hello Roadrunners
As you will be aware I stepped down as President at the recent AGM, having had the honour of holding this position for 4 years, and being part of small group responsible for establishing the Club back in 2018.
I would like to thank the hard-working Committee Members for the support during this time, and all members who make this such a fantastic Club.
Although we did not have anyone nominate to be President at the AGM, I can now announce that Roger Weeks – Member 245 – has put his hand up and will fill the role as a casual vacancy under the rules of the constitution.
Many of you will know Roger who is a Co- Founder and Director of PTSD Dogs Australia and is often seen with his assistance dog Rosie at our events.
I wish Roger all the best and am confident he will very capably guide the Club into the future.
Graeme Block
Remember this is Your Club ! The club for the true ‘Social Car Enthusiast’.
NEW PRESIDENT’S REPORT Hello Roadrunners
The first thing I would like to do is to thank the hard-working Committee Members for their support in welcoming me into this position.
A little about me for those who have only seen me around the perimeter.
As Graeme has indicated, I am Co-Founder and Director of PTSD Dogs Australia which is a charity dedicated to training assistance dogs for veterans and first responders (police, fire, and ambulance) who have been diagnosed with PTSD.
I myself am a veteran having served 14 years in the RAAF and know firsthand what it means to live with this condition, hence my assistance dog Rosie. As hard as it is, could you please try and ignore Rosie as she is constantly working and if distracted could miss a que that I need attention, this can be life threatening.
Since my medical discharge from the military, I have held a number of managerial positions and hope I can use my experience to help guide our great club.
Roger Weeks
