Hello Fellow WAMUGgers, In response to Peter Hinchcliffe’s AGM notice I too urge all members that are in Perth to consider attending the AGM. Not that I have anything against our country members but I do realise the journey might be a bit long. 😄😄😄 It is during this AGM that the Report of the Committee and the Financial Statements is given and, most importantly, the election of the Officers and the Committee. A committee needless to say, is vital to the future of WAMUG.
I have been a member of WAMUG since 2010 when I made the transition from Windows to Macs. I have attended virtually all the meetings since then and have always come away with some information, an answer to a question or a product which I have later included in my personal arsenal of software. About two years ago I tentatively put up my hand to be a member of the Committee because I valued the meetings and wanted them to continue. I say tentatively, because compared to the knowledge of Peter H, Ronnie, Daniel and others, I am a mere private in the “WAMUG army”. However, it is a decision I do not regret. Although I may lack huge expertise in all things Apple - actually extend that to all things ‘computerish’ - I found out I did have things to offer, just as we all have. Being a teacher-librarian I have no problem in presenting to a group so I have on occasion given demonstrations at the meetings. Your expertise might be in organisation, or a particular software package. Maybe you are great at secretarial stuff and would be happy to take minutes at a meeting, or you have a video and would be willing to video & edit a meeting. Whatever your gifts consider becoming committee member. The more committee members we have the more support we can give to you, our members and to ourselves. Perhaps consider joining for just this year. Certainly no one is expecting a lifetime commitment but as the proverb states “Many hands make light work.” Cheers to everyone, Maureen Smith On 3 Mar 2014, at 9:03 am, Peter Hinchliffe <hinch...@multiline.com.au> wrote: > > On 28 Feb 2014, at 8:57 am, Joy Lefroy <mj...@iinet.net.au> wrote: > >> can you send time and address please Peter >> thanks >> > > From the WAMUG web site (http://www.wamug,org.au) > Location: FutureSphere, Level 1 Building L; Christ Church Grammar School, > Queenslea Drive Claremont. > > Time: 7.00pm – 9.00pm > > Cost: $5 > > Visit > <http://www.ccgs.wa.edu.au/atccgs/important-files-store/map-web2010-2.png> to > view a detailed map. > The FutureSphere is building L in the middle along Queenslea Drive [Grid ref: > G9]. > > > Peter Hinchliffe Apwin Computer Services > FileMaker Pro Solutions Developer > Perth, Western Australia > Phone (618) 9332 6482 Mob 0403 046 948 > -------------------------------------------------------------------- > Mac because I prefer it -- Windows because I have to. > > -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- > Archives - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.shtml> > Guidelines - <http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.shtml> > Settings & Unsubscribe - > <http://lists.wamug.org.au/listinfo/wamug.org.au-wamug>
