2009 QLD Excel Series AGM

[Latho]

Hi all,

The 2009 QLD Excel Series Annual General Meeting is being held on the 7th October, at 7.30pm. Venue is to be confirmed (looking at CAMS Milton to allow phone hook up to our northern neighbors), but keep the date free.

All are welcome (and encouraged) to come along and discuss the series for next year. I currently count 6 cars in QLD, so despite the lackluster season we've had this year, next year and beyond is continuing to look strong. Brief agenda as follows:

Open meeting
Attendance
Guests
Apologies

Agenda Item 1 – Previous minutes
Agenda Item 2 – Business arising from previous minutes
Agenda Item 3 – Correspondence
Agenda Item 4 – Remainder of 2009

Agenda Item 5 – General Business
Topics for discussion
- Meeting documentation
- Communication to committee and series members
- Discussion on potential conflict/s of interest
- 2010 and beyond
- Points to take to the national excel meeting

Agenda Item 6 – Proposal for 2010 (Including voting on office bearers)
Agenda Item 7 – Meeting closure

Anyone who wishes to take up a position in the series either needs to attend, or put a proxy in with me, and I'll also cover your apology. I will not be standing for re-election of any position, so all bases need to be covered.

Any questions or dramas, feel free to contact me, 0439 774 126, or email greg at gslrallysport dot com

Regards,
Greg

Another agenda item, discussion as to whether we run QRC 5 (Coloola on Oct 31st) as an Excel Round to make up for the cancellation of the most recent KCF...

Have you spoken with the event organisers? It would need to be written into their regs, which I would suggest have already been submitted to CAMS.

or gallangowan a the end of november?

[Latho]

Gallongowan is already an excel round. See callendar:

Have you spoken with the event organisers? It would need to be written into their regs, which I would suggest have already been submitted to CAMS.
It could be released later in the further regs or a bulletin could it not? I didn't see any point in contacting the BSCC, without first consulting the series committee member and competitors (I've been flamed for doing alot less).

I can recall at least one instance in the other states where a last minute excel round (like under a month) has been approved. Having said that, to the best of my knowledge only QLD has series excel sporting regs approved by CAMS, which may effect the ability for it to happen. Another point of discussion for the AGM...

[Latho]

Venue Confirmed: Sports house, Cnr Castlemaine & Caxton Sts Milton. Same place as CAMS, but not using one of the confernce rooms, not the CAMS room.

[anthony tanzer]

I didn't see any point in contacting the BSCC

Don't you think it would be polite to at least contact the event organisers to ask if it may be possible? You don't have to confirm anything, just open the door to the possibility.

Cheers Tanz.

[Latho]

Ok, I'll speak to Ber about it. Certainly they've been very supportive of the previous rounds, and accomdating of us in past.

[Col Vic]

Latho,

Victoria also has it's series regs approved by CAMS, we have never had any issues (probably because we have always had representation on the Rally Panel)

Col

[Latho]

Ok thanks Col, that's another point for discussion at the AGM. I see NSW has gone about putting someone in theirs.

[Col Vic]

our Person (has been myself and JC) has not been there as an "Excel Rep", but a Panel Member who also has an interest in Excels.
