GREAT NEW TEAM

The meeting in Bendigo was a wonderful opportunity for Victorian members to meet much of the Dragons Abreast team that operates around the country to make everything happen for members.

Trish Greenfield - Regional Rep Manager did an excellent job of chairing her first such meeting and it was wonderful to have both the previous Victorian Representative Pru Menzies and the new representative Lauren Vallance present. Lauren was responsible for the yummy catering!!

Angie Walter, the NSW North Coast Representative and Carole Douglas, North Queensland Representative both enjoyed meeting fellow reps. Cynthia Kuiper, our NSW representative gave an excellent presentation on why members need to support the national body. Pat Hancock from the Policy Committee shed light on the policy making and Moira Cannell from Tasmania lent her expertise too - it was a fantastic combination of talent.

Kathy James (our new Office Admin Manager) also made her debut and explained the ID system as Jan Skorich, our wonderful web mistress flashed up live views of the website and explained all our whizz bang technology!

We were all very thrilled to experience the hospitality of the Otis Foundation - what an amazing place! Thank you Otis!
