President’s Message
March 2026
“They” say that “All good things must come to an end”, which prompts the question as to who “They” are (?), and how do “They” have the insight and wisdom to know that all good things must come to an end?
Wouldn’t it make more sense to suggest that “All good things might ‘change’, even for the better, (if at all possible), or maybe become something new”, rather than coming to an end?
I say this because an end is just around the corner for me personally, and, as much as I can’t get my head around the fact that a year of serving you, the Executive Team, and the Club, as your President, time has rushed by, and life changes.
As this is my last President’s Message, I would ask that you indulge me, as I would now like to exercise the privilege of personally thanking each and everyone for your friendship, your support, and your endless contribution to the success that I believe that we have experienced, as a Club, this past year!
