Area Rep Updates (including Bluff update):

Event Updates, including the CRX meet, jump meet … Jack ridel was going to look into the options associated with running a event at daymer Bay. Discussion also took place about possibility of the club providing rescue cover. It was noted that Grant funding may be available for a club of our nature. Things discussed for expenditure of Grant funding included either the purchase of a rescue cover both Strokes key or the purchase of a set of CRX racer kit. The club decided that both options were impracticable to pursue without commitment to ongoing maintenance costs.
