Tim asked Garth to say a few words. Garth thanked the departing Executive and those who stood for election. Special thanks to Tim for leading the Club for the past two years and that Tim had earned the respect of the entire Executive and Members - Tim received a standing ovation.

Garth presented beer steins to Tim and departing Executive. 50/50 Draw was won by Keith Glover ($325) remainder ($325) donated to Cops for Cancer.

Ron Dempsey asked the members if they would be interested in a Holiday Dinner at Uplands Golf Club on December 5. There would need to be 50 to 60 people at a cost of approximately $70/pp. The speakers will be John and Chris Beresford who participated in the 2019 Paris to Peking Rally in their restored 1959 VW beetle. The majority of members indicated they would likely attend. Ron will pursue and advise.
