Treasurer. As per the 2011 Annual Financial Statement.
Shed Manager. All is well. Timber in trailer will be sorted this week and Christmas signs work will start again.
Project Manager. Almost all the workbook cleared up.
Tool Maintenance. Ben reported that sorting would need to be carried out as soon as possible as we have an abundance of duplicated tools. New equipment has been purchased from Bunnings including sash clamps, oscillating saw, F clamps, pencils and tapes; also a 5/16 roofing screw socket.

He also informed the meeting that the Red Cross will suspend the June Market leaving only Easter and October, although there may be another in January. Some discussion took place on other venues such as Bunnings and Berry Markets. These avenues may be pursued at a later date, if viable and needed.
