2020 National Conference and AGM

242

Owing to Covid-19, our 2020 conference, which would have been held this month in Hawkes Bay, had to be cancelled. However, the AGM and elections were able to go ahead via a Zoom meeting.

Our National executive is as follows:
National President – David Bromwich (Hawkes Bay)
Northern Vice President – Miao Fan (Hamilton)
Central Vice President – Heiko Lade (Hawkes Bay)
Southern Vice President – Craig Ashby (Christchurch)
National Treasurer – Jefferson Chen (Auckland)
National Secretary – Craig Ashby (Christchurch)

Executive Committee:
David Adamson (Christchurch), John Hodgson (Tauranga), Mark Price (Auckland), Amy Tanabe (Hawkes Bay), Vivien Qin (Christchurch)

President Dave Bromwich congratulated the successful candidates, and thanked all for putting themselves forward. Special thanks was given to those who are retiring from Executive.

Due to Covid-19 this is the first year we could not gather to enjoy the company of others in person.
Also due to Covid-19 travel restrictions it has been decided that all tours be suspended for this year and planning will take place for a tour next year once restrictions are lifted.

While a Zoom meeting was sufficient, it was not the same atmosphere as being there in person.
It was great to be joined afterwards by Beijing Youxie and Michael Crook from ICCIC in China.
