We need a Management Committee member (either treasurer or secretary) who can fill one casual vacancy position until the November 2005 AGM. You do not heed to be a bowler, but you will need to learn and understand the needs of a small community based member recreational Club.

A treasurer would need to understand the financial documents presented by the bookkeeper, aswell as develop and support sound financial decisions for the Club. We have a MC member who can guide you on Assoc Inc Constitutional requirements.

The treasurer would be filling a casual vacancy and would need to apply and become a Club member . This position could be filled by a member outside of the Brisbane area, but we would prefer a person from nearby to Enoggera

Our club has no employees; we rely on member volunteers, member volunteers with a stipend payment and contractors. We have a club coach, accredited umpires, a Barefoot Bowls coach, assett coordinator, membership and bowls events coordinators.

People love coming to play bowls at Enoggera Bowls Club for a variety of reasons

• For competition
• For social connection (barefoot bowls and weekly social bowls)
• To build physical / planning skills
• For solo practice and recreation time
• To relax and de -stress
• The shade cover makes bowls comfortable and possible despite the weather

Our community lawn bowls club currently supports people with different backgrounds:

• Retired persons
• Working people(shift/split shift)
• People transitioning from full time work to part time work
• People living with a disability
• People with early stage dementia

Examples of our Club's activities:

1. One son brings his father to play bowls 4-5 times per week. The father is a bowler and now has dementia- but he can bowl and have people at the club talk to him. This community based opportunity is rich for the son and the father.

2. Our 91 year old member bowler visits his wife, who is now in care, every day of the week except for Wednesday- which is Club Pairs. He also spends an hour several days per week practicing bowls and attends Saturday Social Bowls. We are keeping older persons engaged in their community both physically and socially.

3. Last season our Club celebrated a) Men's single Champion of Championships and Pairs Championship for Brisbane District.

4. Our members participate in a Veterans League over the year

5. Our Club is supporting the development of ADF Veterans Bowls

Our Club Inc can not operate without a Treasurer- that's how important this person is to us!
