2016 AGM
NEWS FROM AGM – 22 JULY 2016
Happy to announce Colin Brown continuing on as Secretary/Newsletter Editor this year; the positions of Chair and Treasurer will be filled within committee or rotated amongst committee members. Several new committee members (Jean Hollis and Cavan Haines) joining Dale, Colin, Keith, Kevin and Paul – wonderful! There was a productive discussion around the Motions: Motion 1 was carried, taking effect from 1 July 2017 and Motion 2 was defeated, so our concert prices will continue at $5 for members and $10 non-members. Dale will take on Bookings, with publicity help from Rona and Ian Todd. It was good to see members offering support in a variety of ways, and very positive feedback about the committee’s work and future of the Club. The Reports are available under Downloads on the website. Thank you to all 2015 committee including resigning members Jo, Rona and Margaret. From Dale

Our Logo Design Winner
The winner of the competition to design our new logo is Nita McGauran. A graphic designer based in Wangaratta, Australia.
She has previously been employed in the local printing industry, but now runs her own freelance business
so she can work around her 2 young children.
She found the Club’s competition on a Google search – These are her words:
“I’m always on the lookout for design contests, as I enjoy the freedom of designing without having to follow a strict brief. A winning logo is a great addition to my portfolio, but it is also a pleasure to design for small local clubs who generally don’t have the resources to employ a professional designer – I think they still deserve a great logo!
Although I am not musical myself, I still have a great appreciation of all types of music, including Folk – So I am very pleased that my design was chosen to represent the Levin Folk Music Club.
Thanks to all the members who voted!”
