Article by Jim Seager, President

Given the Coronavirus pandemic restrictions in force throughout Victoria including restrictions on public gatherings our 2020 Barrabool Hills Landcare Group AGM was held later than usual via Zoom on 18 Nov 20. A quite different experience as in the past we usually combined the AGM with a guest speaker and celebrated the year that has passed with wine and cheese!

A big thank you to the Chair of the Geelong Landcare Network, Peter Stray who once again presided over the formalities of the AGM.

Congratulations and welcome to the newly elected Executive of the group:
Jim Seager, President;
Ian Kelly, Vice President;
Heike Dunn, Secretary; and
Treasurer – vacant

Anthony has offered to provide the necessary training and mentorship so if you are interested in contributing to the group in this vital role please contact Heike info@barraboolhillslandcare.org.au.

Geelong Landcare Network representatives are Geoff Anson and Tim Harte.

Ordinary committee members are Tim Trottier, Christa and Trevor Jones, Judy Cohn, Maddie Steel, Dr Kaye Rodden and Anthony Jones with Tim Harte re-elected as Newsletter Editor.

Our sincere thanks to retiring executive members Dr Kaye Rodden and Anthony Jones.

Let us hope the year can once again be celebrated with wine, cheese and good company at the next AGM!
