CEO Report for Members - ‘Keeping in Touch’
PRESIDENT’S REPORT
T
he overriding message the Board received at both the recent Members’ Information Evening and the AGM was that while the regular updates via social media and email regarding Club events has been successful, Members feel general communications could be greatly improved, and I agree. We have therefore committed to resurrecting an on-line and fresh version of the very popular Keeping in Touch newsletter which was discontinued some 18 months ago. We will publish and deliver these newsletters five or six times a year, providing Members with information regarding significant Club projects, upcoming events, game schedules, Member rewards and offers, staff and management news as well as commentary and photos from previous Club events.
There have been a number of developments at the Club over the last few months that need communicating to Members.

Members’ Car Park Relocation DUKE STREET
S
adly from 1 December, Stadiums Queensland (SQ) has elected to terminate the swap arrangement that the Club has enjoyed for many years whereby QCC members had use of SQ’s car park on the corner of Main and Vulture Streets in exchange for SQ utilising the Club’s car park further down Vulture Street, opposite the original location of the QCC. We have been fortunate to have had the use of this car park as long as we have but unfortunately it was never a permanent arrangement and SQ would not ever entertain a discussion for us to have it included in our lease.

SQ have cited as the reason behind the termination of the arrangement heightened risk to QCC Members and their guests entering the Club via the area where an increasing number of trucks load and unload and the increased number of AV vans on game days. The good news is that due to foresight of earlier Club Committees, we do have an alternative. We should be mindful that Stadium Members have nowhere to park at the ground at any time.
