Our New President

At the last meeting of the year the club celebrated the change over to our new President, David Cockman, pictured above with his wife Karen and Assistant Governor Herman De Vries who conducted the handover ceremony.

Actually David is a recycled President, having served in that capacity in 2009-10. He put his hand up for a second term because he feels that, having had the experience, he can now identify the important aspects of the Presidents job and get to work on them straight away, rather than spending time getting used to the position and losing time learning on the job.

In his inaugural speech David outlined the direction that he wants to take the club and urged all members to be prepared to take on new tasks and roles so that the same people are not left doing the same jobs year after year. He also urged Directors to delegate responsibility within their committees and to keep records of all aspects of projects undertaken so that in future years time and effort is not wasted re-learning or, worse, repeating any mistakes which may have occurred.

However, it is not all to be hard work and no play. David has produced a Three Month Planner with nights when there will not be a guest speaker, but a social event such as Night Golf, which should provide challenges of its own for those of us who have problems with golf in broad daylight! (The planner may be found on the club web site within the Member Folders).

The club wishes David and Karen well for his second term and is sure that he will lead the club in the right direction.
