General Meeting | 15 September 2021
We conducted our Annual General Meeting last Wednesday. It was very well attended, welcoming our long term members. We were very lucky to be able to welcome several new members', including the Cairns and Far North Environment Centre.
Even though things have been very quiet , we are still continuing to grow as a not for profit community group.
Our executive was unanimously re-elected.
Our long serving deputy chair, Uncle Eric Rosendale has stepped down. If any community members are keen to have a go as our Deputy Chair, please let us know.
