Welcome to a New CNAV Year

Welcome to 2010 and best wishes to members for another successful year of community news publication.

Our new CNAV year really commenced in October with the election of a new committee at the AGM. As is our practice, election of office-bearers was held over until the first committee meeting in November, the result being

  • President: Mary Jo Fortuna (Waranga News)
  • Vice-President: Jo Vondra (Lorne Independent)
  • Secretary: Liz Hart (Assoc. member)
  • Treasurer/Membership: Helen Smith (Village Bell)
  • Publicity: John Ellis (Chewton Chat)
  • Committee: Tim Huggins (Mountain Monthly)

There are still some vacancies on the committee, so if anyone would like to be part of the action we would love to hear from you. Meetings have been held monthly in Hawthorn, but often with quite a bit of email contact in between. So if you would like to be involved, but the monthly meetings are a problem, please let us know about that too.

The big question in the new year is, of course, where to hold the next CNAV Conference. Please let us know your ideas and suggestions about this – obviously we might not be able to please everyone, but we will certainly take all of your comments into account. Hopefully we will have a decision soon after our first meeting for the year in February.

Once again, best wishes from the CNAV Committee for a happy and successful 2010.

Mary Jo Fortuna
President
