RSL... Share the spirit of mateship JOIN NOW Well another Anzac Day has come and gone, but not without some drama this year. We had a difficult time organising the Anzac Day march. We were faced with meeting some excessive traffic management costs for the march to proceed, that were beyond our financial capacity. After much effort in trying unsuccessfully to gain funding for these costs, the Sub-Branch members reluctantly decided that the march would have to be cancelled this year. When this decision was made public, there was a backlash from the community and the media against the costs the Sub-Branch would have to meet. Finally, Blue Mountains City Council generously stepped in to meet the traffic management costs for all of the Anzac Day marches held throughout the Mountains. We are very grateful for the support from the Council, who were the only level of government to help us with our plight. We were able to hold the march after all, and continue the tradition in Katoomba which stretches back over 90 years. The traffic management costs will continue to be an issue into the future, and there is still much work to be done to achieve a sustainable resolution of this vexing issue. The Sub-Branch s Annual General Meeting was held on 27 March 2016. We were able to report to members that we have our heads above water financially though our revenues are thin. Our major challenge is that the Sub-Branch membership continues to decline with the passage of time, and there seems to be limited opportunities to recruit new members given the demographics in the Mountains. There was no new election of office bearers this year as they are serving the 3 year term commenced in 2014. Your executive committee continues to be: Brigitte Moseley President Owen Wood Senior Vice-President Brian Turner Vice-President Paul Edmunds Treasurer David White Secretary We look forward to seeing you at our monthly Sub-Branch meetings, where there is always good company.

This also means our club nights will be the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month starting the 28th April and continuing through till the 29th September. Winter Season is classed as Short Course as competitions are held Indoors in 25m pools. The end of the Summer season saw our swimmers heavily involved at all levels of school meets as well as Swimming NSW Championships. This is the busiest time of the year as while most Carnivals are held on weekends this is then added to by school carnivals at all levels being held through the week. We have our Annual Presentation being held at the Katoomba RSL Auditorium on 15th May at 2.00-4.00pm.
