PRESIDENT’S REPORT September 2018 Good day all, As it has been some time since I have had active involvement with the Club, but over the years I have maintained interest in the activities of the Club and its people. When I was approached prior to the AGM, I was asked if I would like to be nominated for the Committee, to which I said ‘yes’ but I would not be able to undertake a position like ‘Secretary’ as I know the workload that can be required, as I am involved with another Not-For-Profit organisation in a couple of roles, some being Assistant Secretary of the Executive Committee (EXCO) as well as Secretary of the School Council of the Chinese Association of Victoria Inc (CAV) in Wantirna – which was established in 1982, a younger community Association than ourselves. I have been in their EXCO for the last three years, and involved with their EXCO and School Principal(s) since 2012. At our recent Changeover of Committees meeting, held on Monday 10th September, I appreciate and commend Martin for organising all of the new Committee, all of the previous Minutes of Committee and an Agenda with supporting literature, and as many of the old Committee to come to the meeting, which was held at the CAV School in one of the classrooms. In fact the discussions held lasted longer than a meeting of the CAV Ballroom Dancing Group held in the Boardroom. Individual committee members will catch up and be debriefed by members of the previous Committee not able to attend at that time. My involvement with the Subaru Club began in April 1993, joining the Committee in July 1993 at the AGM, taking positions of Editor, Membership, and Treasurer over about 9 years. At end July 1994 I was awarded Clubman of the Year. It was interesting to see the projects that had been initiated, and their current status, which previous committees have undertaken, all of which we, the current new Committee, all also consider worthy to be completed. These will continue to be pursued by ourselves in the new Committee, with some of us at present taking on additional portfolios until we can entice other members to assist us in furthering the common goals of our Club. On this Martin & I will talk about at the next General Meeting on 25th September. I am pleased to have other enthusiastic members on the Committee for all our common goals, and we hope to further enthuse all club members.
Stay on the track,
Your new President, Mark Tyssen.

VICE-PRESIDENT’S REPORT September 2018 After becoming Vice-President of the Subaru 4WD Club of Victoria, it occurred to me that not only have I never driven any model of Subaru, I can’t remember even being a passenger in one. But I can pick a Brumby from a Forester or an Outback or a XV. I am more concerned with getting out on trips, to places a standard car can’t (easily) get to with the confidence of having knowledgeable club members in support, a great camp site, sitting around an open fire at night and unspoiled views. Some challenging drives but without need for a winch, 35 inch wheels and “expect panel damage” riders some clubs include. In my few years at the club there have been some great trip leaders in the club. Trips that stick in my memory, Kosciusko and Epic High Country trip last year, Border Track following the surveyors line to the Murray River, a long weekend in the High Country, my first trip through Cobaw and the 40 th Anniversary weekend. Great locations but also a great group of people on the trips While this year hasn’t started well, I hope that in the 2018/19 year we can get back to more trips and well supported events, which is the real reason the club exists as a social 4WD club. Tim Folliard e: vice-president@subaru4wdvic.com.au
SECRETARY’S REPORT September 2018 My first couple of weeks as Secretary has been spent dealing with various handover matters. I’ve been looking through old magazines, documents and files as well as items of property belonging to the club. I’m a little shocked at how much stuff has accumulated over the years! Storage is an issue for me, living in a small place that already has too much in it. I’d be grateful if there were any members able to take some of the larger items off my hands, while still being accessible when needed. There are two things in particular I’d be grateful to lose: The club has a large marquee as well as a pop-up tent. The marquee has three large bags containing poles, pegs, tops and sides. These bags are heavy (some require a two person lift). They used to live in the club trailer, which we no longer have (it wore out). The pop-up tent is far lighter, but its bag is also not small. Does anyone have room in a garage or shed for these? We also have the BBQ, ex- FWDV, which is used mainly for the Christmas Party and the Welcome Back GM in January. This is bulky, again a two person lift, comes with legs which fold up underneath, so that it can be transported in a station wagon or trailer. There’s a 9 Kg gas bottle that goes with it and two plastic containers of cleaning and other related gear. If someone could store this and be prepared to bring it to the events, I’d be very happy.
