APEX UPDATE June08
Hello There
The Apex Club of Dayboro continues to run in “submarine mode” – deep and silent – owing to our ongoing misunderstanding with the Office of Fair Trading. However we have managed to structure our support for community organisations by making their requested funds dependant on running in the Dayboro Day Raft Race.
This defers the evil hour of “writing the cheque” and ensures that other, well meaning, hapless individuals run up Williams Street pursued by the bedlam of the Samsonvale Rural Fire Brigade and Apex Club of Dayboro. This year should have witnessed the Soccer Club, OHSC and the P&C thrown into the mêlée in their pursuit of funding.
Election time again in the benign dictatorship/led democracy that is the Apex Club of Dayboro, following a high stakes game of rocks/paper/scissors the executive is as follows: El Presidente (Elect) Steffan Hanssen, Treasurer (Bag Man) Mark Hazell and rounding out the dastardly trio, my self, reluctant Secretary Mark Rushton. It should be borne in mind that the only person elected to a voluntary organization that can go to jail is, you guessed it, the Secretary….
Wild time had by the Apex Boys up at the Rodeo, never a dull moment either on the gate or behind the bar best wishes to Jackie Wallace and her Posse who might have had their best year yet – YEE HARR.
The smoke alarm battery replacement project ran smoothly this year, though we were a bit under whelmed by the numbers, maybe the other support organisations have got the matter covered but if any of the elderly and infirm need help, or assistance with their smoke alarms that’s what we are here for.
New faces have been seen at Apex meetings of late and I don’t mean the Dayboro Scouts who have been observing the free ranging exercise of democracy that typifies our meetings. Real fresh “prospexians” have been witnessed attending meetings – their identities shall be shrouded in mystery for fear of embarrassing their loved ones pending the “ceremony”. We know where you live
Regards
Mark Rushton
President (For a short while only)
