Renae called for Director’s Reports
- Mark noted in two weeks time we will have the DG and partner attending

Thanks Bernie for tracking down Terry, he did his own diary entry and slipped it in for seven in the evening, and he had been working at The WindanSea Clubhouse.
It’s a good intro for the Community Clubhouse – Terry noted that Roger was also involved.
It has been 12 years in the making. Henzells got an accolade for their support.

WindanSea run the Ma&Pa Bendall Surf Competition, Australia’s second oldest - they have run it since 1970. But the club “needed a home“. See "Harmony Lodge” for more on Ma&Pa
The clubhouse is intended for community use and will include pother surf related clubs, such as the Caloundra Malibu club, Indigenous Surfers, Moffateers, as well as the Turtle Conservation volunteers and the two schools either side. It was approved by Council, but three days before the appeal date, there was a a referral to the Planning and Environment court which they and Council defended. Now its well on its way to completion.
