Congratulations to all of our coaching panels and officials (Team Managers, Runners, Trainers,
Escorts, Time Keepers and Players) of our teams who represented the Parkside Football Club this
year, without your people we would not be playing of a weekend.

A special thanks to all of our SPONSORS because without your support it difficult to make ends meet.
"THANK YOU".

To all of our trophy winners congratulations for a fine season.

To my fellow committee men thank you for your commitment for 1992.

In summing Parkside Football Club is a institution within the Footscray District League and for this

club is going to remain a power, we need you.

TREASURERS REPORT

This time last year I had the pleasure of standing here and announcing club had made a $17,000
profit for the year. Well, 12 months is a long time in football because this year I regret to announce
that the Parkside Football Club made a net loss for the year of $1,285.

Total Income of $93,641 was 12% lower than last year, while Expenditure rose by 6%.

I think that it's more fitting to firstly talk of our strengths of 1992 rather than our weaknesses.

Firstly, Bingo again generated over 32% of this clubs total income. Once again this club must thank
the efforts of Pat McDougall.

The Bar also continued on from its good result of last year, recording a $16,203 net profit for the
year, up 15% from 1991. This result was helped along by the Plough Hotel providing our beer at
prices 10% below last year, which helped enable our operating margin to increase from 98% in 1992
to 108% in 1992.

With Grant Hamilton resigning from the position of Bar Manager because of work commitments, it is
important for the club to quickly fill this position to follow on from the improvements gained over
the past two seasons.

The Canteen, helped along by the tireless work of Judith and Jim Lee showed a 38% improvement
from 1991 to record a $4,021 profit for the year.

Once a Parksider, Always a Parksider
