THE BUSH TELEGRAPH JUNE 2018NZDA AUCKLAND BRANCH: PROTECTING & PROMOTING HUNTING 2

PRESIDENT’S REPORTGreetings to all.

This Month will be a very busy one with both pre-measure night and a week later the measure night proper including, the roaring competition and results of the photographic competition. Then there will be the Annual dinner and prize giving.

If you have never been to the measure night or don’t consider yourself as a trophy hunter I would highly recommend that you come along for an hour or so and see the results of a hard yards hunting by many members of the Club. Some of the heads are the first ones shot by members while others are a combination of a couple of years of research and dogged determination to track down an elusive animal.

As mentioned our Annual Dinner and Prize Giving is coming up soon - see page 9, be in quick as there will be limited numbers (approx. 100). The night is a good time to have a great meal and enjoy the comradery of your fellow members as well as congratulate the winners of the various Club competitions.

We have put together a subcommittee that has been charged with looking into options and costings for the repair of the east wall and replacement of the Clubhouse roof including the removal of asbestos that is present in these areas of the building. The facts and figures will be reported back to the Committee and then presented at the July Club Night for the members to discuss and decide how to move forward. We are also exploring access and eligibility for grants that would assist to fund the repair project if approved by the membership.

Winter is now upon us with temperatures and weather conditions changing day to day from subtropical to downright freezing and all in one week. Just a reminder that if you are going out hunting in the next few months, be prepared for the worst conditions and hope for the best. Always check the long range weather forecast and if in doubt pull out. I will be heading for a four day hunt in the next few weeks in the Kaimanawa’s and will be taking a few extra warm clothes and wet weather gear.

See you at the next meeting

Dave Nicol

Club President.
