The maintenance and improvements done at the working bees are one of the things that make our club so good - they all keep Illabunda in the impressive shape it is.

Please set aside some time to attend a working bee - yep there is some hard work - but they are alot of fun too!

New Managers for Season 2007

To all Members

May I take this opportunity to wish you and your family the very best in 2007 and look forward to seeing many of you at the Lodge and enjoying a good snow season.

I also wish to formally advice you all that Jochen & Suzette will not be returning to us as our managers for this year. Sadly Suzette’s mother passed away in late 2006 and they have decided not to renew their contract with us. I’m sure you join with me in sending our condolences to Suzette and Jochen and thank them for their friendship and the wonderful work they have done for us over the past seven years. The good news is that they will now be coming to Illabunda to enjoy their skiing.

The committee has appointed Matthew Geercke and Luanne Rogers as our new managers for
2007. Matthew and Luanne are coming to us from Boonoona Lodge and come very highly recommended.

On behalf of all members I welcome them and ask you all to make them welcome and help
them settle in.

I thank you all for your help in 2006 and good skiing in 2007.

President
