Harcourt Bowling Club held its Annual General Meeting last Sunday May 17.
President Gary Maddern presented the Annual Board Report to members and noted the reports from committees, pointing out the need for further voluntary participation from members in the running of the club.
The opening of the season 70th celebrations and the impact of the fires on the whole community in January were also noted.
Treasurer Rod Harris spoke to the Audited Financial Statements noting the financial viability of the club and extended thanks to Auditor George Milford for his sound advice.
Retiring board members Carl Roberts and Ron Douglas were thanked for their service.
For the six vacant board positions, there were six nominations – therefore all declared were carried.
At the subsequent meeting of the new board the executive appointments were elected as follows: President Gary Maddern; Vice Presidents Heather Braid and Brian Leech; Treasurer Rod Harris; Secretary Diane Marsh. Other members are Kay Francis; Chris McAuliffe; Kaye Grant (co-opted);
and newly appointed Alan Taylor and Michael Saward.
