Dear Members,
It has come to our attention that the official notice issued for the 2025 Annual General Meeting (AGM) of Athletics Wollongong included an incorrect meeting date.
While the date listed in the original email gives appropriate notice, it's for a night on which we may not have access to the stated venue.
Our intent — as mentioned in the past three club newsletters — was to hold the AGM this coming Tuesday, June 10th. However, as that date is now within the required 14-day notice window, we are unable to proceed.
As a result — and to ensure transparency, compliance with our legal obligations, and the integrity of the meeting and its outcomes — the original 2025 AGM Meeting Notice is hereby retracted.
The new date for the AGM will be Tuesday, July 8th, with a corrected notice to be issued to all members shortly, in accordance with our Constitution and relevant legislation.
We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience caused and appreciate your understanding as we take the necessary steps to uphold good governance. If nothing else, this hiccup is a reminder that we’re all volunteers — good-intentioned, but not infallible. Perhaps some might even find that inspiring and consider joining the 2025/26 Committee! (If you'd like to check it out first, the June AW Committee Meeting will be held this Tuesday, from 7pm, in the Tennis Club boardroom).
If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to get in touch via athleticswollongong@gmail.com.
Kind regards,
Michael McClelland
Athletics Wollongong - President
