going through tuff times.
Dear members friends and readers,
Christmas carnivals are over and here we are again it’s almost Easter.
The runs all underway and shows have begun, looks like we’ve started off on a good note, crowds are good.
We had a great turn out at Think Tank with lots of chats with different show society’s and volunteers who make great contributions keeping shows
Lots of members to our meeting in January with lots of discussion which is pleasing.
We would like to thank all of those that make the day possible every year, Yvette, Kim and their team work hard to feed everyone and we say THANK YOU to everyone who made it happen.
There were a couple of birthday parties at Maitland which was fabulous. It was great to see all of our people again, gathering and sharing special occasions.
We ask that all members communicate with the delegates and the office to let us know if you are not attending shows you own space at, so we can get equipment there to keep the shows alive.
Insurance is still plaguing us with outrageous prices and unrealistic information required to obtain $20.000.000.
At Sydney Show we look forward to catching up again with the ASC and building our communications, things are always clearer with communication.
Our Easter Meeting will be held on the 19th March 2024 at 7pm at the Silverwater Hotel, 214 Silverwater Road, Silverwater. Hope lots of you can make it.
Happy and safe travels. Kind regards,
Aaron Pink President
