Chairman s Report
Good to see our Model A members enjoying their tour around the Gisborne area, the report I have is they’re having a lot of fun and that’s what it’s all about.
It is good to see Carroll Wiblin, Dave Kemp and Lynn Millard up and about and enjoying everyone’s company. They tell me that the VCC bed at the hospital doesn’t need a new mattress.
It is with regret that we hear and record the passing of one of our colourful characters Ted Maher, our thoughts are with Kath and her family.
As most of you are aware, we are taking out two trees out of the line on Patchets Green. It is going to cost; but it has to be done. We are also looking at taking the rest out sometime in the future as we are concerned that they are getting to big. They have the reputation of dropping branches. We view this as dangerous because someone could get seriously hurt or they could damage any cars parked under or near them.
The Farm Machinery guys have offered to trim the sides of these trees, but as mentioned the committee feel they are better out, gone. We are in the process of getting a price for taking the lot out. The plan is to replace with a more suitable planting.
Reminder to you all, our AGM is on the 30th May, don’t forget to get your nomination (s) in. If you would like to help run your club, speak to any of the current committee. We would like to have all nominations with the Secretary by the 28th of April so as to have names circulated in the May Vintage Viewpoint.
Janice and I hope this report finds you all in good health.
Regards to you all
