Feel free to have a look around and find out about Apex 40, especially if you are a former Apex member who would like to meet up with other former Apex members. Please come back regularly to check on recent updates.
The old Crest Club of the Blue Mountains has decided to join Apex 40 and will do so at a meeting on 21st February 2010. For more details see the President's Report in the Nepean Valley Droppings. (Crest was sponsored by Apex in the late 1980's as a womens service club.)
Nepean Valley have forwarded an Annual Report for 2009.

Bendigo have provided a report on the registrations as at the end of November. Bendigo believe there are still some stragglers out there, so get your registration in ASAP, especially for your accommodation requirements, as reserved accommodation may become unavailable before Christmas. Registrations were required by the end of November. If you have not registered yet, please do so as soon as possible so that Bendigo has an idea of how many will be attending the Rort. You only need to send a deposit of $100 per person. You are now too late for the Early Bird prize. Go to Rort Information for details of the programme and post rort tour, registration form and accommodation options. |
NZ Club 41 has provided a proposed itinerary for a 15 day tour to take in the combined NZ Club 41 Convention and Apex 40 Rort in June 2011. The itinerary may be subject to change and will depend on the number of Apex 40 members that undertake the tour.
NZ Club 41 have provided indicative costing for the tour in 2011.

Photos from the Happy Days Rort are now available. The Wyong Rort was absolutely fabulous - and if you have a look at the photos you will see that all attendees had a great time. Saturday lunch saw a re-enactment of the 1994 Fawlty Towers episode, complete with Basil, Manuel and Sybil. The weekend was capped off with the appearance of Lucky Starr on Sunday night. There is a comprehesive report in the July edition of Roaring 40's The home cooking for Saturday's morning tea was a delight, and many people asked for the recipe for Margaret's Macadamia Nut Tartlets . |
All clubs are asked to send in their Meeting Notices in advance of their meetings. You never know you may get some visitors from other Apex 40 clubs by notifying your meetings in advance.
At present there are meeting notices from 16 clubs on the site, but there are 32 affiliated clubs, so"where the b#^^*y hell are you". Photos and a few words about your activities are also welcome.
To supply Branch news and photos or for suggestions and comments please send e-mail to apex40web@optusnet.com.au with your files attached as jpg, pdf, Word, html, or text.
Apex 40 is not a Service Club, but an organisation formed to foster fellowship among past Apexians and their partners, and to retain the many friendships formed during their Apex years. It also exists to assist Apex, when asked, and not to operate in opposition to Apex. It is open to past members and their partners, and also Ex-World Councillors who have retired from their respective organisations.
