Victorian Showmen’s Guild
Election Recall and New Timetable
Due to the recent sad passing of Ron Trevor, our long-standing Executive Committee Member and candidate for the Victorian Showmen’s Guild 2021 election, the Fair Work (Registered Organisations) Act 2009 provides that the election must be discontinued, and a new election held.
Ron Trevor was a candidate for the Committee Member/Vice President position; therefore, the Australian Electoral Commission will declare the results for the uncontested positions and start a new nomination process for the Committee Members.
Thank you for your understanding during this time.
Please see new timetable for Committee Members only
