Notice of Motion for the AGM of ACM

Motion:

I move that the club donate $10,000 to the Wellington Free Ambulance for the building of their new Ambulance Station in Masterton.

Moved: David Howden

Rationale

The club has had to called on the services of Wellington Free Ambulance at least once in most seasons.  The service is free where St. John would have cost someone $250 each time.  The new Wairarapa Ambulance Station will be a major asset to the district and improve our capabilities in case of major earthquake or other disaster.  From the WFA web site “Built to IL4 standards, able to withstand more seismic shaking than other commercial structures, it will provide a safe space for the people of Wairarapa in the event of a civil emergency or natural disaster. If the Wellington WFA base was compromised this station would become the headquarters for all regional services.”

The club have the funds to cover this easily and in spite of ongoing effort to reduce the cash we hold, the asset base of the club has been stable.  This stability has been due to the fund-raising events we hold during the year.
