ASRWC 2023 AGM & New Committee

The ASRWC AGM was on Sunday, 22nd October; it was a fantastic family event where we got through the formalities and the new committee was nominated. Good times and chats were had afterwards by all. We Can't wait to catch up with you all again!!

 There are some old faces and some new ones on the new committee. Everyone brings a unique skill set and perspective to the committee, and we can't wait to build on the wonderful foundation set by the previous committee led by the amazing Cail Rayment. Thanks, Cail!!

Your efforts are very appreciated. Thanks, Ant!!
