Incorporated – At Last

   Posted by: Julia Redlich    in NSW Branch News

white-rose-smallYes, after many years the Sydney, New South Wales Branch is now incorporated. It has taken some time to organise with various volunteers taking on the chore, then mysteriously disappearing from the action!

A Mini Conference in 2010

   Posted by: Julia Redlich    in Meetings

white-boar-smlAfter getting the impression that most members would like the next day-long conference to take place in Sydney, the committee went to work on dates and venues – and came up with the following:
Place: North Sydney Leagues Club, Abbot Street, Cammeray.
Date: Saturday, May 15, 2010, from 10am – 4pm
Many of us know and like the Club, one of its advantages being ease of access: a short bus trip from Wynyard to Cammeray shops, then a very short walk to the club. Or train to North Sydney and a bus to Cammeray shops from there. There’s a large car park for those shunning public transport.
More details will come later, of course, but we hope it will be as enjoyable as our last day-long conference, and we aim to keep the costs down. Morning and afternoon tea and lunch will be included.
