The 2011 AGM/Rort will be combined with Club 41 NZ's AGM in Nelson, NZ. A comprehensive 15 day (14 night) itinerary has been planned to take in the AGM in Nelson and to tour the South Island. The tour will commence in Christchurch on Wednesday 1st June and finish in Christchurch on Wednesday 15th June.
The old Crest Club of the Blue Mountains has joined Apex 40. See Nepean Valley Droppings for some photos at the Farewell/Welcome meeting. (Crest was sponsored by Apex in the late 1980's as a womens service club.)
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 13 clubs on the site, but there are at least 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.
