The John McKay Memorial Award 2014 Club Member of the Year was presented to Ian Herron. Ian took on the office of Secretary at the last AGM and has ensured all members are kept up to date via email, website and monthly newsletters.

Undoubtedly the highlight of the night was the granting on the Club’s first Life Membership to David Johnston. David is a foundation member who served as President for 5 years and has been a committee member for almost all of the past sixteen years. Well deserved recognition of all the outstanding service given to the Club. Congratulations Dave!
