Parkside Football Club 1897/2017

Although our income increased the cost of maintaining a successful playing Club in all grades and
combining this with providing first class social rooms is an ever increasing one.

Items such as team maintenance and equipment are causes of concern as their increase year to year
seems to became greater.

Our income this year has increased at a satisfying rate with Bingo being the main source. Fund
raising has achieved an excellent amount and this area will become more important as our normal
income levels out.

I would like to thank Gladys Brown-Kerr and her helpers who raised the magnificent sum of
$2030.00. This amount far exceeded all our expectations.

To my fellow Directors Mick Rochford and Ron Fraser many thanks for an excellent year in
fundraising. These two proved that in the past we never really explored this area fully. My thanks
also go to Neville O'Connor for controlling the Bingo Accounts and to Clive Blair for his Sunday
mornings.

Finally I would like to thank all those who have assisted me throughout the year and I look forward
to another successful year not only financially but also on the playing side.
