    HCCNSW to be wound up - Can you help?

    Hi all,

    It seems like a decision is almost made in regards to winding up of the club due to a lack of interest by existing members.

    It is 40 years of the club this year and I personally would hate to see the club wound up.

    All we need is a few key positions to be filled on the committee so the club can continue. Of course it will also require more participation by members but I am willing to give the club any required publicity through Ozhonda just to keep the club going.

    I would offer to be a committee member however due to my commitment with running Ozhonda and planning a wedding this year, I don't want to make any promises that I cannot keep.

    Key positions to be filled are:
    (a) the president;
    (b) the vice-president;
    (c) the treasurer; and
    (d) the secretary.

    I'll be willing to give any spare time I have to assist but we do need to fill the above positions if the club is to continue.

    Clubs like the HCCNSW aren't easy to start up but more important is the fact that it has been around for 40 years.

    If you have some time and are interested in helping out then please reply here or send me a PM.

    Come on all let's try and keep the HCCNSW going!

    For the positions I mentioned above:
    (a) the president - The president is ultimately responsible for the club. That said, his/her work load is quite minimal IMO and primarily has to ensure that all items discussed at meetings are carried out. Basically he/she holds everything together
    (b) the vice-president - Similar to the president and will step in as required when the president isn't available.
    (c) the treasurer - Responsible for handling of the accounts. Will have access to the clubs bank account and needs to co-ordinate with the secretary to ensure new membership payments are noted and passed on to the Secretary.
    (d) the secretary - The secretary probably has most of the work to do in regards to keeping minutes of meetings, ensuring new member signups are noted and membership cards sent out etc. That said, the existing secretary has put his hand up to stay on if the club continues. Thanks Ray!

    The above positions are the bare minimal required to keep the club running. That said, the current committee has a few more positions which include:

    (e) Editor - Responsible for the Revs unlimited magazine. Ie making sure there is enough content for it and that the magazine goes out.
    (f) Membership secretary - Responsible for ensuring new memberships are processed, member contact detail updating, and sending out membership renewal letters.
    (g) Social Secretary - Responsible for organising social events. Most social events at the moment are held in conjunction with other clubs. ie the HCCNSW is invited to events hosted by other clubs. If/when we get enough numbers we can look at hosting our own events.

    Most work IMO will be getting the club up and running in an active way again. Ie have discussions online (via these forums) so that more people know about the club. Even if they just join to get a CAMS licence! I see some extra hours initially however after that I don't see much more than say 2-3 hours per week for most of the roles (this is excluding monthly meetings and events). The secretary might have to put in some extra hours though.

    I am willing to help out too so will attend meetings and promote the club through Ozhonda. If after year there is no interest or participation by members, then at lease we can say we tried.

    Does that help a bit ?

    And how are you going to plan on selecting a president, vice-president, etc for example?

    No deadline as such, but within the next few weeks would be best.

    I've just sent PMs to all those interested in taking a position on the new committee. We'll be meeting on Sunday 11 July for a catchup, brunch and talk. If you're interested and haven't PMd me then do so now
