AMP’s Tomorrow Fund is once again offering $1 million in grants to amazing Australians doing great things – and we would love members of your community to apply. Now in its fourth year, this unique grants program is open to individuals of all ages, walks of life and abilities. In 2017, AMP’s Tomorrow Fund awarded 45 grants to artists, athletes, inventors, social innovators, scientists, writers, disability advocates, musicians and more. What they have in common is a desire to give back to the community – be it through creating something special or inspiring others. AMP is now seeking more talented and innovative Australians who are working hard on a project or passion but just need a financial boost to take it to the next level.

Grants of between $5,000 and $100,000 can cover a range of activities, including training, travel and equipment costs, living expenses, rent and research.

Please help us to support amazing Australians by encouraging your colleagues and community contacts to learn more or apply online at ampstomorrowfund.com.au.

Applications open Thursday 5 April 2017 until 4pm (AEST) on 17 May 2018. This website’s Tips and tools section also includes FAQs, useful resources such as downloadable posters, fact sheets and a sample application. It also includes profiles on our past recipients - known as AMP Tomorrow Makers - and short videos.

Can all teams (including new) please have a representative attend with an indication of number of teams / players being entered. It is important that a team representative attends, as a lack of representation may determine whether the competition is run this year. There will be a follow up meeting (date TBC at this meeting) to conduct an AGM, determine the competition schedule (draw) and select a start date. Scott Kelly Association President

A Simple Misunderstanding She wanted to serve her guests mushroom-smothered steak, but she had no mushrooms and no time to buy them. Her husband suggested, "Why don't you go pick some of the mushrooms that are growing wild down by the stream? "No, some wild mushrooms are poisonous." "Well, I see squirrels eating them and they're OK." So she picked a bunch and washed, sliced and sautéed them for her dinner. Then she went out on the back porch and gave Spot, their dog, a double handful. Spot ate every morsel. All morning long, she watched the dog. The wild mushrooms hadn't affected him after a few hours, so she decided to use them. The meal was a great success. After everyone had finished, her daughter came in and whispered in her ear, "Mum, Spot is dead." Trying to keep her head about her, she left the room as quickly as possible, called the doctor and told him what had happened. The doctor said, "That's bad, but I think we can take care of it. I'll call for an ambulance and I'll be there as quickly as I can. We'll give everyone enemas and we'll pump out their stomachs and everything will be fine. Just keep them calm." Before long they started to hear the sirens as the ambulance tore down the road. The Paramedics and the doctor had their suitcases, syringes, and a stomach pump. One by one, they took each person into the bathroom, gave them an enema, and pumped out their stomach. Well after midnight, after the last one was done the doctor came out and said, "Everything will be okay now," and with that he left. The hosts and the guests were all weak and knackered sitting around the living room when the daughter came in and said to her mum..... "I can't believe that bloke!" "What bloke?" "You know, the b……. who ran over Spot; he never even slowed down."
