AAR PRESIDENT’S REPORT 2010 AGM Reviewing the past year I am encouraged with the continuing enthusiasm of our members as demonstrated by the attendance at our annual rally and interest in our newsletter (the Horse’s Mouth), website and the Chat Room Forum. ANNEX B Congratulations to this year’s AAR Committee and our State Representatives for a job well done. Many dedicated hours are required to keep the AAR functional and active behind the scenes. Thank you to this year’s South Australia Mannum rally committee for putting on such a wonderful annual rally for us so far. Rallies do not just happen but require a dedicated team of workers to give us the activities, events, dinners and even this AGM for us to attend and enjoy. Last year’s NSW Evans Head rally was a big success despite the rain. It was a huge social event which is an important part of our get togethers. A big thank you to Alan and Lynne Stratton and their committee/sponsors for a job well done. It is also encouraging to have arrangements in place for 2011 and an expression of interest for 2012. The establishment of a new AAR website by Peter Holdcroft (ACT) and Col Hill (ACT) has been an important part of our communication with our members and the outside world alike. Thank you Peter and Col, and also thank you to other contributors. The Chat Room Forum has also been established by Bob White (NSW) with help from Ray Philps (NSW) and is popular with our computer literate members. Keep up the good work. The newsletter continues to be a popular form of communication with our members in particular those who do not have computers, many of whom are our older members. The production cost of the newsletter was becoming a concern until it was decided to approach industry related businesses for advertising which was successful in raising funds to help cover some of the costs. Our AAR insurance cover was also a cost concern; however, a considerable saving was achieved by affiliating with Motorcycling Australia (MA), thanks to our Secretary’s “shopping around” efforts. Some changes were proposed to the club rules at last year’s AGM, however after some consideration the Committee decided to undertake a complete update based on Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV) model rules. These rules have been prepared and circulated for comment, and will be voted on the Special General Meeting. Thanks to Col Hill and Chris Hillbrick-Boyd for taking on the task of updating the new rules. Best wishes go to those AAR members who are unable to attend this year’s rally due to illness or family related commitments. It is with regret we were informed of the passing S.A. AAR member Darrel Rowe (AAR No 10) in July 2009. Allan Boyd President, AAR March 2010
