Youth: Two students for the RYPEN weekend have shown interest.
The Club will continue to support an outgoing student for Youth Exchange, however thought should be given to hosting an incoming student. It is proposed that "outside" host families would be considered, but a very diligent club member would be required as a councilor for the arrangement. The role would require a fair amount of time to make this work effectively. Please see Geoff Chandler if interested.
Footy Tipping: This very important competition is on again soon. See Alex if interested with your $50.
