Brisbane Water Bridge Club holds AGM.
The Brisbane Water Bridge Club held its Annual General Meeting on Monday 11th September to elect a new Executive and Committee for the ensuing twelve months.
Retiring President Sylvia Foster’s Annual Report highlighted the difficulties faced as the Club emerged from COVID and thanked all the past Committee and in particular the members for their continued support and participation over the past twelve months.
She wished the Club continued success and promised the new Committee her on-going support.
The new Executive and Committee members:-
President - Jim Routledge.
Vice President - Christine Hadaway.
Secretary - Ann Snow.
Treasurer - David Adams.
General Committee.
Jaan Oitmaa
Chris Hasemore
Steve Anderson
Jenny Buckley.
Auditor - Jorgen Boettiger
The numerous volunteer positions remain basically unchanged.
President Jim thanked the members for their support and said he was looking forward to the challenge of the next year. He also thanked all those volunteers for agreeing to continue their unselfish work which kept the club functioning so well.
The annual AGM Pairs were conducted after the meeting.
A super size field of 12 tables fronted the judges with some surprising results.
Possibly the biggest result was the successful defence of their title by Elaine and Peter Hume. To win one red point event is hard enough but to front up again next year is almost unknown.
