President Peter's Ponderings For This Month

The November General Meeting is the last for 2025 and in accord with our Constitution, nominations will be sought for Committee vacancies.

Committee membership does require personal time but in so saying it is rewarding knowing the decisions we make and directions we take deliver a level of participation and interest that will see the club move into its 22nd year and beyond.

Committee aside, my focus this month is the dual member Speakers position and the underwhelming support for filling the position.

Several past and present committee/SIG members have demonstrated by example that it is not rocket science and that there is an excellent template to follow. These members are finite in number and the life line as I call it at best does not stretch past March 2026.

What we need to start the ball rolling is for just one member to approach any committee member and say:

“I’ll do it but find me a partner!”

With this first step in place we can then canvass for a partner and ideally have a speaker structure in place for April 2026 and beyond.

This approach worked for the Outings position!
No reason why not for Speakers.
