5 The Ballarat Light Car Club Bulletin May 2017
PRESIDENTS REPORT Welcome to the May edition of the Bulletin. The editorial team is gaining experience, with Andrew and Kate Bayley
playing a large part in its preparation for the first time. They are off to a good start. Kate brings skills as a professional
graphic artist and designer to our team.
If you have an H plated vehicle or would like to place a vehicle on this scheme please read carefully the information on
page 17. I offer thanks to Chris Hall for leading a review of how this system will work within our club. He has put to-
gether a small team to help him. The new system begins on May 23, 2017. We trust that this system will work well.
Thank you to Dave Stewart who carried the load for quite some time. He will now take a rest from this function. Dave
has also paved the way for our club to be involved in an exciting new event to be held in conjunction with the
Maryborough Wings and Wheels Festival, which promises to provide a major financial benefit to the club.
I thank Garry Harrowfield for his very thorough research into the insurance needs of our club to cover us from all of
the eventualities which may befall us. We will now be in a position to take out appropriate cover as a result of Gary’s
hard work. Geoff Boyd has put considerable effort into refining our financial accounting systems and making sure this
important area of club is working smoothly. Barney Haddon prepared the autocross track for our Off Road Rush visi-
tors and then again for the VCAS autocross event last Sunday. The track quality received many compliments. This event
was run beautifully by Ben McKee and his team. Well done. Arron Secombe interrupted his return to rally competing,
to give support to the Tunbridge rally organisers. At the time of writing I do not know if there will be enough entries and
whether all the effort will lead to a successful event.
The most important part of my report this month relates to the preparation of a new set of rules which will determine
how our club is organised and how it will function in the future. Because we are an Incorporated Association, Consumer
Affairs Victoria require that we have an approved constitution that deals with all manner of items to do with club life.
Our original set of rules dates all the way back to the formation of the Ballarat Light Car Club in 1991, growing out of
the Light Car Club of Australia (Ballarat branch). The relevant act of Parliament was updated in 2012 and many mem-
bers to put a lot of thought into how our rules should be updated to match the new requirements. The State government
provides an example set of rules, called the Model Rules, and our club solicitor, I believe, has performed a great service
for us in combining the new with the old.
We need to consider and formally vote to adopt this combined set of rules to place our activities on a very clear and un-
ambiguous basis. For the most part, you will not see any difference in the way things happen, except perhaps for the
committee election. We are recommending a compromise between the Model Rules where all 12 stand down each time
and our usual 4 stand down each time. Under the proposed rules 6 stand down each time. Thus an individual committee
member will be elected for a 2 year term. We believe this is a good blend between keeping experience and providing for
some refreshment of the group.
The publishing of this Bulletin and the placing of the proposed new rules on the club website will trigger a period of 21
days for you to look at the changes to your own satisfaction. A copy of the rules will be available at our monthly meeting
on 26 May. The formal voting on a resolution to adopt these rules will take place at a Special General Meeting on Fri-
day, 9 June at 8 PM. I would urge you all to attend this meeting. We require at least 20% of our members to attend in
person or by proxy and we need 75% of those who do attend to vote in favour in order for the resolution to pass. If you
are not able to be at the meeting you are welcome to vote by proxy using the form at the end of this Bulletin. You can
bring this form, or others that will be available to the monthly meeting on 26 May, or send them to the Returning Officer
at least 24 hours prior to the Special General Meeting at which the voting will take place. Thank you for your effort in
order to help us put the club on a sound governance footing.
See you at our Trophy night (2016 events) and very interesting guest speakers, Life Members and Rally Legends Geoff
Boyd and Garry Harrowfield.

Welcome to our new look Bulletin!
It may only be a week or so into May but it’s been a week of full -on work to
get this Bulletin ready to go and the results show; we’ve got a new style and
new motivation to provide you with a Bulletin that can truly represent our club.
The new Bulletin is only a small part of the action that is going on through the
club, Phonebooks are being delivered and we’ve just finished the VCAS round,
which you can read about inside, and the Mitta Mitta Rally which showcased
some great driving and navigating from our club members. Our upcoming
Trophy night promises to be an excellent evening so don’t miss out!
We’ve put this out ahead of the usual time to give you a chance to read and
review the new club rules that have been proposed before a Special General
Meeting in June. So have a look, read up on the new rules and we’ll see you
then.
Andrew

Hello Members,
As we are all aware the Club needs to be up to date with all compliances; one of these compliances is the online component. This
includes but not limited to Facebook, Emails, Twitter, Website, Team App, The Bulletin and so on. I have completed a draft and
would like feedback on this, so I can complete this policy and have it accessible to BLCC members. Please read the below :
GUIDELINES FOR SOCIAL MEDIA PARTICIPATION
AS PART OF THE BALLARAT LIGHT CAR CLUB INC.
SOCIAL MEDIA GUIDLINES
These guidelines apply to Ballarat Light Car Club members either financial or social who create or contribute to BLCC Social Media. Whether
you log into Twitter, Instagram, Team App, Website and Facebook page, or comment on online media stories — these guidelines are for you.
While all Ballarat Light Car Club members are welcome to participate in Social Media, we expect everyone who participates in online
commentary to understand and to follow these simple but important guidelines. These rules might sound strict and contain a bit of legal-
sounding jargon but please keep in mind that our overall goal is simple; to participate online in a respectful, relevant way that protects our
reputation and of course follows the letter and spirit of the law.
1. Your honesty will be noted in the Social Media environment, if you are writing about BLCC or associated partners (CAMS, Motorsport
Complexes, Other Car Clubs and Events Series.). If you have a vested interest in what you are discussing, be the first to say so.
2. All statements must be true and not misleading; all claims must be substantiated.
3. Post meaningful, respectful comments — in other words, please, no spam and no remarks that are off-topic or offensive.
4. Use common sense and common courtesy: for example, it’s best to ask permission to publish or report on conversations that are meant to be
private or internal to The Ballarat Light Car Club. Make sure your efforts to be transparent don't violate Ballarat Light Car Club privacy,
confidentiality, and legal guidelines.
5. When disagreeing with others' opinions, keep it appropriate and polite. If you find yourself in a situation online that looks as if it’s becoming
antagonistic, do not get overly defensive and do not disengage from the conversation abruptly: feel free to ask the Media/Online Compliance
Officer for advice and/or to disengage from the dialogue in a polite manner that reflects well on Ballarat Light Car Club.
6. If you want to write about CAMS, State and Local Government departments, Motorsport Complexes, Other Car Clubs and Events Series,
make sure you behave diplomatically, have the facts straight and that you have the appropriate permissions.
7. Please never comment on anything related to legal matters, litigation, or any parties Ballarat Light Car Club may be in litigation with.
8. Never participate in Social Media when the topic being discussed may be considered a crisis situation. Even anonymous comments may be
traced back to your IP address. Refer all Social Media activity around crisis topics to Media/Online Compliance Officer.
9. Be smart about protecting yourself, your privacy, and Ballarat Light Car Club confidential information. What you publish is widely
accessible and will be around for a long time, so consider the content carefully. Google has a long memory. NOTE: Mainstream media inquiries
must be referred to the Media/Online Compliance Officer.
10 The Ballarat Light Car Club Bulletin May 2017
VCAS ROUND 5 On the 7/5/17 the Ballarat Light Car Club held it’s round of the 2017 VCAS.
The round didn’t exactly clash but having the Mitta Mitta VCRS on the same weekend saw a drop in numbers
from the usual 80 - 90 cars to a field of 43 competitors but considering what 90 VCAS drivers get up to during an
event, a smaller field was a nice change.
Greeted with decent weather with just the right amount of drizzle every so often to keep the track damp,
our directors Ben McKee and Rod Hall gave us the usual briefing and the event was underway around
10:30am.
A full-length track with the tricky dogleg at the bottom in use produced some very fast laps, right up
to the point when the cars came screaming into the dogleg off the main track and missed the corner
completely.
Aside from the previously mentioned corner of mayhem and the occasional spin in the horseshoe there was only
one other incident when a Lancer tore a wheel centre from it’s rim and came to a sudden stop on the track, except
for the remains of the wheel, which seemed intent on finishing the lap by itself.
Barney Haddon came to the rescue with a jack and the car competed for the rest of the day, with one odd
wheel on the rear. While the Lancer was being rescued it was seen as a perfect opportunity to deliver some lunch
then and with Paul Duncalf barbequing all of our officials were well fed, not to mention the
rest of the entrants and crews who enjoyed the food on offer at our Dusty Diner.
With dark clouds overhead most of the afternoon, it was surprising when we only had one shower of rain after the
drizzle we had during the parade lap and it even got to the stage where the water truck was sent around and the
familiar dust clouds were showing up by the last run.
With four runs completed and a majority of the field packing up the event was finished by just about 3pm.
Which just leaves us with a list of people to thank, Ben and Rod, for directing the event, Noel and Barney for
scrutineering, Ian Brain, Paul Gladman, Damien and Brayden Quirk, Wayne Holness and
Mick Goossens for helping out because without a team of people to run these events, then they just
wouldn’t happen.

CLUB RULE DECISION TIME
Why we need to consolidate our rules
Currently, we have two sets of rules to guide our activities. We have the BLCC Rules draft-
ed in 1991 complying with a 1981 Act of Parliament and we have the 2012 Model Rules
complying with a 2012 Act of Parliament. There is the potential for perceived or actual
conflicts between these two sets of rules, as occurred leading up to our recent Committee
“reset”. It is therefore in the interests of good governance for our club to clarify the situa-
tion by combining these rules into one unified document.
How we have consolidated the rules
The Model Rules cover everything that is required by the new act and is therefore the main
basis for our consolidation. However, there are some items addressed by our existing old
rules that are part of our traditions and ongoing practices of the BLCC Club. Thus it is im-
portant to add or merge these aspects of the old with the new.
The committee has considered and agreed to the items to be included in this rule merger.
The drafting solicitor
The rules presented for your approval have been drafted by our long term Club solicitor of
choice, Paul Stephens. Paul drafted our original rules in 1991, and is highly experienced
with the current Act and in this area of the law. Paul was asked to use the Model Rules as
the basis of our proposed new rules, and to add pertinent aspects of our old club rules, pay-
ing particular attention to those items identified by the Committee as of high regard.
Inspection of proposed new rules
You may inspect the full length document (44 pages) on the front page of the BLCC web-
site (www.blcc.net.au). There are also full length paper copies of the same rules for your
inspection at the club rooms. We will have a single purpose Special General Meeting to
consider ratifying these rules. This meeting will be held on Friday 9th June at 8pm (doors
open at 7:30pm) at our Club rooms.
There is a degree of urgency felt by Committee, with the aim being to clarify our rules in
time to conduct our next AGM and election under the auspices of the consolidated new
rules.
We urge you to attend this meeting and to exercise you voting rights. If you cannot attend
please lodge a proxy form.
15 The Ballarat Light Car Club Bulletin May 2017
CLUB RULE DECISION TIME
To pass the new rules
This meeting will require an attendance in person or by proxy of at least 20% of our member-

ficer, Rod Hall not later than Thursday 8pm 8th June 2017. Spare proxy forms will be availa-
ble at the May monthly meeting.

CAMS - OFFICALS PATHWAYS Licence Structure and Pathway
The Licencing and Accreditation Guide is a reference guide
for new and current CAMS Accredited Officials containing
information on the National Officiating Program; licence applica-
tion, upgrade and maintenance; training and development; policies
and procedures.
The CAMS Accredited Official licencing structure has two
parts: Graded Officials Licences and Non-Graded Officials
Licences.
Graded Officials Licences have six grading levels and are
available to all CAMS Accredited Officials to achieve. Non-
Graded Officials Licenses have two types: Specialist Licence
holders are those that hold professional qualifications and are
registered medical service providers. Appointed Licence holders
are those that have been appointed by the management of CAMS.
The diagram (right) shows the licence pathway and the
available disciplines in which to specialize at Bronze level. Each
of the disciplines in blue have an associated training module, as
does General Official (Introductory Module), Club Chief and Sil-
ver level.
An official may hold different levels for different disciplines
of officiating at any one time (e.g. they could be a Gold Steward
and a Bronze Rally Official). The graded levels are defined as
follows:
Trainee
General Official
For those with motor sport officiating experience who are capable of working under indirect supervision at all events.
Club Chief (Club Level Specific)
For those with motor sport officiating experience working without supervision, capable of performing the role of Clerk of
the Course/Event Director, assuming a team-leader role (except Chief Scrutineer) or Chief Steward role at Club/Multi-Club
events (excluding race, rally and off road events).
Bronze
For those officials qualified to officiate without supervision, capable of performing the role of team-leader (may take
responsibility for other officials), officiating as Chief up to and including State level events and act as General Official at any
level event.
Silver
For those officials with motor sport officiating experience qualified to work without supervision, capable of assuming a
team-leader role (and taking responsibility for other officials), officiating as Chief up to and including National level events, and
act as a General Official at any level event.
Gold
For those officials with motor sport officiating experience qualified to work without supervision, capable of assuming a
team-leader role (and taking responsibility for other officials), officiating as Chief up to and including International level events,
