Chicken and Champagne. A superb morning for running in the bush, a bit cool at times but otherwise perfect! We had about 38 starters front up and everyone seemed to enjoy themselves – lots of JSquad people, well done for getting up early. The course of thirty controls was set by Chris Creely who had just finished remapping the area. It was really great to see Darren Eenjes back out in the bush after a long absence – there’s a whisper around that he’s still in the ‘walking’ stage of his comeback as yet – how long he can put up with this will become evident in time! I noticed some of the Cherry family at our event also but when I picked up the local daily on Tuesday I found photos of Katina and her Mum prominent in one of the gallery pages at another event.

The AGM was held after everyone had a bit of Fowl and Fizz and resulted in:

President: Richard Goonan
Secretary: Terry Davidson (there will be a separate minutes secretary)
Treasurer: Andrew Wallace
Vice President: Jim Russell (this is for 1 year only, new VP needed next year)

A motion was passed allowing the executive to co-opt committee members as required.

I would like to congratulate Jim and the outgoing members of the Executive for their work for the club over the past few years, and wish them well in their orienteering in the future. We are the best orienteering club in Victoria (in my modest view) – Australia for that matter. If you are a member be aware that Bendigo Orienteers is your club and the Executive need you to put forward any thoughts you may have that will help us prosper even more.

Coming Events.

Bendigo ToDay 14 and 15 February. Full details can be found on Eventor and our Team App. I will also put details in next weeks Bulletin.
