IN ATTENDANCE Mr Greg Hornby (General Manager) Mr Darrell Pannowitz, Tonkin Drysdale Partners (Honorary Solicitor) Mr Peter McIntyre, Macquarie Partners (Auditor) Ms Lynnley Capell, Administration

No other business will be conducted except for the one motion for presentation to the members G Callingham

Outlined the Special Resolution as detailed in the notice printed in the Annual Report and Balance Sheet for the year ended 30 June 2014. To consider, and if thought fit, to pass the following resolution which is proposed as Special Resolution 1

SPECIAL RESOLUTION 1

That the Articles of Association of Everglades Country Club Limited be amended as follows: 1.

2.

3. 4.

5.

6.

Inserting the following new definition into Article 1 immediately after the definition of the Act "Biennial General Meeting means the Annual General Meeting held in the year 2014 and every second Annual General Meeting thereafter being the meeting at which the Board of Directors is to retire and the members elect a new Board" Inserting at the beginning of Article 8(a) the words "Subject to Article 8(a)(i)" Inserting the following new Article 8(a)(i) immediately after Article 8(a) "As and from the Annual General Meeting held in 2014 the Board shall be elected biennially (that is, every two years) Deleting from Articles 5(a), 8(b), 8(c) and 8(e) the words "Annual General Meeting" and replace them with the words "Biennial General Meeting" Deleting from Article 6(a) the word "annually" and replace it with the word "biennially" Inserting in Article 9(b) immediately after the words "Officers and" the words "at the Biennial General Meeting"

Notes to Members regarding Special Resolution 1 1.

This Resolution proposes to alter the term of office for the Board of directors by introducing biennial elections for the Board, i.e. every two years where the Board is elected to a two year term of office. 4 4

2.

3.

4.

5.

If the Special Resolution is passed: (a) the proposed amendments will take effect at the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2014 (being the First Biennial General Meeting). (b) all directors will be elected every two years to serve a term of office of two years (c) the next election for the Board after the 2014 election would then be held in 2016, then 2018 and so on.

The laws relating to Registered Clubs are becoming far more complex. The Club operates under the provisions of both Commonwealth and State Legislation including the Corporations Act, Registered Clubs Act, Liquor Act, Gaming Machines Act and their associated Regulations as well as many other laws.

The Biennial election of the Board provides for better stability for the Board and allows a greater time for a Board Member to acquire the requisite knowledge from more experienced directors and from educational programs including compulsory programs attended over time.

The introduction of the Board election every two years does not change the fact that the Club will still be required to hold an Annual General Meeting every year.

Further Note to Members regarding the Proposed Special Resolution. This Meeting has been convened by the Board which unanimously recommends to members the changes to the Articles of Association in the proposed special resolution #1.

Procedural matters in relation to the Special Resolutions To be passed, the Special Resolution must be approved of not less than three quarters of members present and entitled to vote at the Meeting. The resolution must be passed as a whole and cannot be amended by motions from the floor of the meeting except to make a correction that would give effect to the intent of the Special Resolution. Spoke for the Resolution Mr G Callingham, President #905 Spoke in support of the Resolution 1 as proposed for a two year term for Everglades Directors Spoke against the Resolution R Benton #63 Spoke against the Resolution but stated he would support a 2 year rotation with half the Office retiring one year and the other half the following year, thus providing continuity Spoke for the Resolution M Gage #824 Noted R Benton’s point is more applicable to a 3 year term (triennial) with 1/3 of the Board elected every year BALLOT Returning Officer Scrutineers

PRESIDENT’S OVERVIEW – Geoff Callingham Marketing our services was a key pursuit this financial year. Briefly, the Club improved the Pro-Am sponsorship packages; implemented a yearly marketing and Club activity calendar; adopted a new Instagram account and "pin board" on Pinterest to showcase our food, functions and facilities.

The Club increased kids entertainment with school holidays kids discos and other major monthly discos and events. We increased the Club's activities within the community through augmented public relations, introduced SMS marketing, e-news marketing, and direct marketing to the local retirement villages.

The Club introduced reception digital signage, with the Club Bulletins and ClubTalk now on our website. We have a committed Marketing Manager in Christine Wenta and the Functions Co-ordinator, Chantelle Perkins. Their work is perhaps reflected in a $175,000 profit in the catering sector compared to $5,019 in 2013.

Overall, the Club traded well with a profit of $288,863 and a cash surplus of $1,075,000. 11 11

During 2013/2014, consistent with our strategy, we have worked on challenging issues, and enhanced the public standing of the Club through our community involvement.

We have delivered relevant and affordable services to our members, and have maintained sound financial and governance activities, as well as a safe and well regulated environment. At a time when NSW registered clubs are closing down and merging at an unprecedented rate, we are conscious of the need to continually look ahead and plan to ensure our Club remains viable and in the forefront of the club industry. This will continue to be part of our policy throughout 2014 and beyond. GENERAL BUSINESS

[Insert  photo]   PRESIDENT’S  ANNUAL     REPORT    -­    2015         G  Callingham       Throughout   the   last   financial   year   there   have   been   constant   changes   within  the  finance  sector  with  interest  rates  dropping  to  record  lows  and   the  economy  generally  suffering  setbacks  leading  to  uncertainty  within   all  industries.  Throughout,  the  Club  has  continued  to  trade  well  despite  a   reduced   profit   of   $43,605.   Cash   in   reserve   is   $923,114.   Our   Treasurer,   John   Moore,   deals   more   completely   with   the   trading   activities   in   his   report,   but   it   is   pertinent   to   mention   that   the   member’s   discount   was   $147,692   more   than   that   for   2013/14,   and   poker   machine   trading,   although  increasing  in  turnover,  resulted  in  a  difference  of  $75,794  due   to   the   number   of   payouts   experienced   throughout   the   year.   Member’s   discounts   to   this   extent   may   not   be   sustainable   in   their   present   form,   particularly   as   the   Club   enters   into   improvements   provided   with   construction  of  new  facilities  during  2016.     As   I   advised   in   the   May   Bulletin,   it   is   not   the   Board’s   intention   this   year   to   submit   to   members   that   terms   of   elections   of   Directors   be   altered.   The   State   Government   has   decreed   that   terms   of   Director’s   membership   will   be   mandated   in   due   course   and   it   will   be   then   compulsory  under  the  Registered  Clubs  Act  for  all  clubs  to  adopt  two   year   or   three   year   terms.   It   has   already   decreed   that   the   number   of   Board   members   must   not   exceed   nine   and   preferably   seven.   With   absences,  resignations,  etc  the  Board  now  operates  on  many  occasions   with  seven  or  less  members.     The  Board  agrees  to  focus  instead  on  future  development  of  the  Club   and  its  activities.  We  have  met  with  our  Design  and  Construct  partner,   Rubicon,  and  plans  for  a  new  Club  are  well  underway.  During  August   we  will  meet  to  determine  the  manner  of  the  re-­‐development  and  the   anticipated  costs.  The  necessary  financial  aspects  involving  the  Club’s   budgets  will  be  prepared  and  assessed  by  our  Auditor  for  presentation   to   the   banking   sector   in   order   to   obtain   a   loan   to   carry   out   the   improvements.       The   Board   is   conscious   that   a   reliance   on   gaming   activities   only   to   fund   its   future   operating   activities   is   a   false   premise.   Hence   the   new   Club  will  expand  its  capacity  in  the  catering  sector.  A  new  coffee  shop   with  larger  serving  facilities  and  seating.  An  enlarged  dining  area  and   a   children’s   play   room   are   just   some   of   the   improved   areas   under   planning.   Once   the   plans   have   been   accepted   and   the   loan   obtained,   detailed  plans  will  be  on  display  throughout  the  Club.     At   a   recent   Central   Coast   Region   of   ClubsNSW   meeting,   the   CEO   of   ClubsNSW   suggested   that   if   clubs   were   considering   carrying   out   renovations,  now  would  be  one  of  the  best  periods  to  do  so,  as  interest   rates   were   low   and   there   was   a   stable   and   supportive   state   government.   It   was   also   mentioned   that   clubs   contribute   most   to   the   tourism  economy  on  the  Central  Coast.     14    

It was also mentioned that clubs contribute most to the tourism economy on the Central Coast.

This year, $81,301 was paid out to organisations under the ClubGrants Scheme during 2014/2015. Involving Categories 1 and 2, the amounts were a significant boost to those non-profit organisations.

Directors Mick Gage, Jan Montgomery and John Moore represent 14 Everglades on both the Region Committees and the internal Everglades Committee occupying considerable time and effort on their behalf. The donations enforce the actions of the Club in recognising our community involvement.

The golf course alterations were finally completed with holes 3 & 4 being standouts in the new arrangement. Chris Haynes and his staff together with the Golf Committees did a magnificent job in designing and building the new course and congratulations are deserved all around.

It was wonderful to see that our golf professional, Darren Chivas, won the award for the best professional for 2015. Darren received his award at Royal Sydney Golf Club at the ceremony held each year amidst a number of members from this Club who also attended to give him support. In addition, a Certificate for qualification to be a golf professional was also given to Nathan Miller who was also heartily congratulated. On the Bowls side, there was much angst at the increase in Bowl’s membership fees from the Royal NSW Bowling Association and the District entity. Many bowlers no longer want to play in Pennants and Championships, preferring to have a social day with their friends on the greens only. Consequently, the increase in fees was to be seen unfairly targeting the majority.

All Directors have now been fully trained under the compulsory provisions of Government and Corporation Act guidelines. Several ongoing training seminars were attended throughout the year at various locations. One Director, Laurie Powell, resigned on the 30th June 2015. In conclusion I give thanks to the Board of Directors for their support and commitment throughout the year. It remained a strong and disciplined unit and I have much pleasure in being associated with them all.

To Greg Hornby, our General Manager, another year of hard work and good results overall. To Greg and his staff, particularly floor managers and staff, the Board’s appreciation is extended and I’m sure you will all love the way the Club will be developed. To the managerial and office staff, the Board realises the work you undertake and complete for the operations of the Club and which is truly appreciated. To Chris Haynes and Darren Chivas – both important entities – the Board thanks you and your staff for the excellent job you all do. G Callingham JP President

Catering surplus in 2014-15 was $219,603 (up 24.8%) compared to $175,986 in 2013-14. Head Chef (Arthur) and his dedicated staff are to be commended on these continued improved results. With future expansion to our facility we expect our profits to increase as we move forward.

19 GOLF SECTION Our golf section finished the year with a trading net profit of $89,158 ($112,640 in 2013-14). Revenue was static compared to the previous year ($1,444,006 in 2014-15, $1,455,045 in 2013-14). We have seen continued improvements to the course thanks to Superintendent Chris Haynes and his staff, the Environmental committee and the Men’s and Ladies golf committees. Increases in operating expenditure (particularly wages) have seen our Golf Surplus decline to $89,158 compared to $112,640 in 2013-14. Both Men’s and Ladies subcommittees have healthy bank balances and have provided members with good competition, prizes and functions throughout the year. BOWLS SECTION Our Bowls section continues to suffer because of the lack of numbers. The operating loss has been contained to the level of last year ($106,987 compared to $106,478 in 2013-14). Revenue was down 29% this year and the losses have been maintained at a constant level by a reduction in expenditure of 12.7%.

ENTERTAINMENT AND SOCIAL MEMBERS This year has been a great year for the utilisation of our Auditorium with many top entertainers. Although our Entertainment overall has a large cost factor ($129,095) you can treble that figure in revenue gained at the Bar, Gaming and Catering. It is a necessity to bring to our members and their guests the many different forms of club entertainment. As at June 2015 we had 9,033 Social Members and 1,432 Sporting Members all making use of our Club. By marketing our product successfully it brings in the revenue we need to keep moving forward.

LOOKING AHEAD Over the past couple of years the operational side of ECC has been through a period of consolidation. We are technologically ahead of our close competitors thanks to our General Manager. Our Gaming section is being continually upgraded. We can confidently look forward over the next couple of years to an exciting phase in the Club’s development. In conclusion, I would like to pay tribute to the Board for their continued strong support and efforts in moving the Club forward when many clubs are struggling to stay afloat. To President Geoff for his leadership, Executive members Michael Gage and Janette Montgomery who always provide good debate when decisions of importance are required. To Greg Hornby and his Management and Staff who are totally motivated and always very approachable. 20 Finally, to all our Social and Sporting members “Thank You for being

MEN’S GOLF PRESIDENT’S REPORT - 2015

R Paull It is time for another Annual Report to reflect on the last 12 months of Everglades Men’s Golf.

It has been a very busy year for our Greens Staff with the two new holes being constructed and brought into play. The staff should be congratulated for the amount of time they have put in to make it happen on budget and in a timely manner. The par 4 is quite difficult and is playing as No. 6 on the index and the par 3 is a very good short par 3 and very picturesque. I again remind Members that carts, bikes etc are to be kept on cart paths and outside the orange lines around greens. Also, please rake your bunkers and place the rakes in the middle of the bunker.

The Capital Asset Fund is injecting funds to the golf course and the purchase of necessary equipment to maintain the golf course. The construction of the next 2 greens will hopefully commence in late 2016 pending sufficient funds. With the new computer system in place the match committee can now monitor the index of holes and change them as required. Three new monitors have been installed and should make the kiosks more effective.

I must thank the Members who support our Wednesday raffles from week to week, and Peter Batty and his team for their weekly running of the raffles. All the Pennant teams played well, but unfortunately were not able to make the finals this year. Thanks to all players for putting aside the time to represent the club. I also wish to congratulate all the Members who were selected in the District Representative Sides during the past year. To all our championship and Major Event winners I give my congratulations for the great effort and the way the game was played. There are far too many of you to mention individually here but you will all be listed in the sporting results section of the report. I would also like to thank Dads Army, Bruce Shipton, Gordon Dickson, Col Chant and Terry Ungerer who undertake general maintenance duties on the golf course. Also our happy gardeners headed by Patsy Elliott and John Lawrence who tend to our gardens on Mondays and Fridays. I would also like to thank members who donate plants from time to time. The gardens are really well maintained and add colour and beauty to our golf course. The technology centre within the Pro-shop is assisting Members and pro-shop staff with the selection of clubs and correction of any wayward swings. I must congratulate 24 Darren on being appointed PGA Pro of the Year and Nathan for completion of his trainee program.

Darren, Scotty and the staff in the Pro-shop always look after all the Members and there is always a pleasant smile and a friendly hello when 23 you enter the shop. To Darren, Scott and all the staff, thanks for your efforts over the past year. Please continue to support your Pro-shop. I also wish to thank Jan Henry and the Women’s Committee who have worked closely with us over the past twelve months to try and ensure that golf at Everglades continues to progress. To the members of the Golf Committee, once again I thank you for your continued support and your untiring efforts in the running of golf at Everglades this past year.

To Members who have lost family Members in the past year we offer our sympathy. I wish you all a happy and healthy year and good golfing. Richard Paull Men’s Golf President

Vicki Gray winning the Bowl. The Longmarkers Cup was won by Terrigal member Jan Hoban.

Our members continue to make an outstanding contribution to a number of deserving charities throughout the year. As a result of the annual raffle, including $750 donated by Everglades Country Club, we were able to donate $5,000 to Central Coast Kids in Need.

During the year we also donated $1,000 to breast cancer research, $1,200 to Glenvale School and $500 to the District charity day 26 supporting OASIS, making an impressive total of $7,700.

Once again I must thank all of those people and organisations without whose help and support we could not run our weekly competitions, and especially our major days, so successfully throughout the year. Sponsors for these days include Bendigo Bank, Malcolm Glase, CCWGA, Darren Chivas, Umina Podiatry, Flowers by Marianne, The Swampies, Coastal Funerals, Dick Paull, and Sydney Financial Planning. Thank you to Darren Chivas and the Pro-shop staff, Greg Hornby and the Club staff, and Arthur Hassett, Executive Chef, for your continuing support of the Women’s Golf Section. Lastly, I would like to give a big thank you to all the hardworking committee members who contribute so much, and bring a great variety of skills and expertise to the Club. Special thanks to Captain Wendy for a job well done in often difficult circumstances this year. My sincere condolences to members who have lost loved ones this year and to those who have not enjoyed the best of health. May 2016 be a better year and we see you all back on the golf course.

MEN’S BOWLS PRESIDENT’S REPORT - 2015

R Benton

2014 – 15 was a year of consolidation for Men’s bowls, with Tuesday mid-week social bowls progressing to its second year of operation after transferring from Wednesdays. The nomination of two sides in the pennants together with one team in the Lou Higgins Shield was again cause for some concern. The re-establishment of the Sunday bowls as a viable social bowling occasion was to be applauded. While the rehabilitation of Greens #2 & 3 was also a source of some satisfaction.

One of the most vexing issues with men’s bowls was the over 30% increase in our controlling associations’ capitation fees. This, together with an extensive culling of the membership list, contributed to a loss of over 30 non-renewing bowls members for the coming financial year. Men’s bowls numbers are now down to around 135 members for the start of 2015 - 16.

Once again, with only two sides contesting the 2015 State pennant season, permitted Everglades to strongly represent in the Lou Higgins Shield. Accordingly, Everglades replicated the 2014 result, when it defeated Umina B.C. in the final of this strongly contested event for peninsula pennant reserve players. Congratulations were duly accorded to all the members who played throughout the season together with the pennant selectors for their sage selections in this field. The pennant sides however could not replicate the previous season’s high, with the Grade 6 side finishing runners-up in their section, unlike 2014 when they finished runners-up in the Zone finals. The Grade 3 side has performed with better team work in previous years, but played without luck this season. From the personnel in these three divisions several of our troops entered the Zone & District championships.

The best result was Paul Trigg, who in the 2014 State Rookies Championships was defeated by the eventual Zone winner from The Entrance, in the semi-finals.

The 2015 event is being hosted by Everglades on 29/30 August, and Paul is still eligible under the 30 month rule applying to this event to contest this championship. Along with several of his confreres with an extra twelve months exposure to the game and the home ground advantage the Zone title could be Everglades bound with the State award very much in the offing. With the mid-week social games being contested on Tuesday for a second year, the influx of golfer/bowlers and new bowling members certainly sustained the social bowling 30 scene throughout the year. This was much appreciated by the executive.

With   the   mid-­‐week   social   games   being   contested   on   Tuesday   for   a   second   year,   the   influx   of   golfer/bowlers   and   new   bowling   members   certainly  sustained  the  social  bowling  scene  throughout  the  year.    This   was  much  appreciated  by  the  executive.             However,  with  the  numbers  declining  on  Tuesdays,  due  to  the  reduced   membership,   and   the   Wednesday   Mixed/Open   Championships   precluding   working   members,   certain   mid-­‐week   championships   are   to   be  trialed  on  a  Friday  afternoon.    At  the  time  of  writing,  this  trial  has  not   commenced  so  data  is  not  at  hand,  but  it  is  hoped  this  will  prove  a  boon   to  the  mid-­‐week  bowling  scene  and  also  promote  bowls  at  Everglades  to   the  Friday  evening  social  membership.     Likewise  the  recent  revamping  of  the  Sunday  social  bowls  has  proven   to   be   much   appreciated   by   the   Sunday   bowling   contingent.     Appreciation  is  certainly  conveyed  to  the  families  that  have  taken  on   the  role  of  “organisers”  for  these  days.     Also   on   the   success   side   of   operations   was   the   continued   excellent   performance   of   our   visitation   activities,   with   visits   from   Mt   Lewis,   Parramatta   Leagues,   Canterbury-­‐Hurlstone   Park,   Burwood   RSL,   Ryde/Eastwood,  Toongabbie,  et.  al.  These  visits,  coupled  with  charity   days  such  as  the  very  successful  Prostate  Cancer  Day  and  Patron  Ron   Banks   Day   not   only   reaped   a   benefit   for   the   Country   Club,   but   the   bowlers   also   had   many   enjoyable   days.     Many   thanks   are   due   to   Ray   Ward  &  Bob  Brien,  until  their  resignations  from  the  committee  for  the   success  of  these  days.    Co-­‐ordinator,  Beth  Quinlan  has  taken  on  a  more   holistic  approach  to  the  organisation  on  these  days  which  continue  to   be  enjoyable  as  well  as  successful.     Significant   Days,   such   as   the   Officers’   &   Members’   Day,   the   memorial   tournaments   celebrating   our   late   members   who   contributed   substantially  to  bowls  at  Everglades  –  Dick  Carroll,  Stuart  Miles,  Brian   Crawley,  Arthur  Hughes  and  George  Smith  -­‐    plus  the  highly  successful   and  enjoyable  reciprocal  visit  from  Mt  Lewis  were  also  well  supported   and  proved  a  boon  for  the  Country  Club.     It   was   also   pleasing   to   see   our   major   tournament,   the   Frank   Kemp   Classic,   again   conducted   with   a   capacity   field   presenting   on   the   day.     This   is   a   rare   feat   on   the   Central   Coast   in   the   current   bowls   environment.       Another   positive   for   the   year   was   the   continued   success   of   our   recruitment  endeavours,  with  our  reduced  band  of  accredited  coaches   passing   at   least   5   brand   new   male   bowlers.     Many   of   these   new   acquisitions,   apart   from   mitigating   the   loss   of   members   through   attrition,  are  now  making  their  bowling  presence  felt  in  our  various  in-­‐ house  and  external  competitions.     Everglades   was   again   selected   to   host   the   NSW   Wheelchair   Sports’   bowls   singles   championships.     Also   the   Zone   15   executive   selected   Everglades   as   the   venue   for   the   President’s   Reserve   Singles   and   the   Veterans  Singles  and  Pairs  championships.    While  Zone  5  RSL  continues   to  utilize  Everglades  for  social  days  and  championship  events.

to utilize Everglades for social days and championship events.

However, one of the dilemmas presented to bowls was the sudden resignation of Greenkeeper, Kim Smith who put in a tremendous effort to reinstate the Greens under his control in the 2 years he was with us. We welcome his able replacement, Adam Chapman, who at this early stage seems to be building on Kim’s endeavours. Greens #1 & 2 are the potential biggest boost to bowls at Everglades with both again beginning to run as they did prior to the total renovation undertaken a couple30 of years ago and if the progress continues many more district events can be gained to benefit the Everglades. With the CAF moneys from bowls the various scheduled capital works should continue to be undertaken for the benefit of bowls and Everglades. I would like to congratulate our bowls champions and runners-up, the various memorial trophy winners plus the various inter-club tournament winners, as well as all participants who contested these numerous events. On behalf of the Men’s Bowls, I extend our appreciation for the support received from the Board, Management and the staff at all levels for their continued assistance and advice throughout the year.

I would like to welcome Ron Hughes (Vice President) Malcolm Hughes (Secretary/Treasurer) and Len Haddock to our Management Committee and thank them for contributing their skills and volunteering hours to carry out the tasks allotted to them.

Special thanks must be given to Bob Brien, Bowls Secretary for four years, for the enthusiasm he put into his arduous duties until poor health forced his resignation mid-term. Likewise, to Bob’s faithful sidekick, Ray Ward, for his many years as “the” committeeman for visitations, raffles and Sunday bowls, who resigned on the “two for the price of one basis scenario” with Bob. With no replacement for the vital role of bowls secretary, committee members, most notably Andrew McDonald, stepped forward and filled the void created by Bob’s and Ray’s departures from the management team. I thank the bowls management committee members for the way they undertook their general administrative functions throughout the year which was a difficult one, with the implemented new procedures including e-mailing bowls newsletters and changes to the “jackpot” format for social bowls; the selectors for the hours devoted on behalf of the members – the pleasing results of which have been listed above; the reduced number of umpires for their continued diligence; our coaches for their perseverance; and especially our regular social and championship bowlers for their continued patronage over the year.

To our many volunteers who assisted at social bowls including Sundays, at barbecues or lent their skills to other activities such as assisting Coordinator Beth with barefoot bowls & corporate days, Thirsty Thursday bowls or at charity days and other fund raising events, I offer thanks, hearty congratulations and best wishes to all involved in one or more of the these areas.

Finally, I would like to thank and express my personal appreciation to my fellow executive members Ian Richardson & Ron Hughes (Vice Presidents) Bob Brien (Bowls Secretary until his April resignation) and 32 Mal Hughes (Treasurer) for their assistance and support over the past

thanks, hearty congratulations and best wishes to all involved in one or more of the these areas.

Finally, I would like to thank and express my personal appreciation to my fellow executive members Ian Richardson & Ron Hughes (Vice Presidents) Bob Brien (Bowls Secretary until his April resignation) and Mal Hughes (Treasurer) for their assistance and support over the past year, I know your efforts have been recognised by the membership. To conclude, all of the above cited innovations have had the oversight, 31 input or conceptualization of Beth Quinlan, who continues to be a major asset in her roles as Bowls Coordinator and Chair of the Joint Bowls Committee, Umpires and Coaches Sub-committees.

Apart from her usual duties, Beth was instrumental in organizing numerous activities including the October Week of Bowls; the many Shirts v Skirts games; Mother’s Day and Father’s Day functions; providing elite coaching practices to our in-house coaching sessions, and as befits a current NSW and former Australian representative player, providing the highest level coaching skills to enable Everglades players’ to visibly upgrade their bowling skills, which can only enhance the competitive levels of the Everglades men’s bowlers.

WOMEN’S BOWLS PRESIDENT’S REPORT - 2015

S O’Connor

It gives me great pleasure to present my first report as President. This past year has been very busy and enjoyable.

Sincere thanks must go to my very hard working management committee. We set a number of goals from our first meeting and I think most of them have been achieved through hard work and co-operation.

Our Pennant teams, although not winning a flag, competed admirably and represented our Club with pride. Two of our ladies, Lyn Morton and Elaine Vincent, competed in the final of the District Pairs, with Lyn also playing in the final of the District Singles; a great achievement by them. Our under 5 year bowlers competed and won the Buckworth Shield again this year. This was back to back and we are very proud of this achievement. We have some very promising bowlers coming through.

Unfortunately, several of our older ladies have changed to social members as they can no longer bowl. We will miss them on the green and thank them for their participation over the many years they have been with us. We again hosted the biggest morning tea for cancer and raised $726. This is our best effort yet and a very big thank you must go to our lady bowlers for their skills in the kitchen and very generous donation of cakes. We conducted our Waterlily Pairs in June and filled two greens with members and visitors. Another successful day with very happy prize winners. We still have a number of special events planned and hope they will be just as successful.

My sincere thanks to Beth Quinlan our Bowls Co-ordinator for her support, advice and help during the year. A great sounding board. Thanks also to the Men’s’ club for our mixed bowls and special days. I would also like to thank the staff, office, front desk, supervisors and kitchen. Your assistance is very much appreciated. Sue O’Connor Women’s Bowls President

EBITDA

EBITDA is one of the more commonly used financial measures to measure the financial performance of a company, particularly in the Club industry. It is an abbreviation for “Earnings Before Interest, Income Taxes, Depreciation & Amortisation”. It is an indication of how much cash-flow is being generated from the Club’s core activities which can then be used to fund further Club investments. The Board consider this a key measure and review this on a monthly basis to see how the Club is performing. Below is a summary of the EBITDA for the current and previous years.
