Congratulations to the newly elected committee members!
At this year's AGM we had a large shift of people coming in and others moving out of the committee.
The new committee is as follows:
President - Mikey
Vice-President - Fish
Secretary - Bec
Treasurer - Sop
Marketing Officer - Billy
1st Year Representative - Tallon
We hope you like you're new committee. Well you should, you voted for them!
Also mega-big thanks to this past year's committee members who did a tremendous job, as well as Scotty and Tony who played a big part in making sure we didn't run around like headless chickens.
Enjoy yourselves and see you all for the BBQ on Thursday (6pm, outside the Monash Sport Kiosk)!

Fish is our friend... not our food!
Edit: The position of "Performance Officer" has been replaced with "First Year Representative" this year.
For those of you panicking about the inevitable shifting of the universe that comes with every Monash Wushu Club Annual General Meeting, here is a review of the positions available. The AGM is on the 25th of August 2008 (Monday). We will also fit in some training that day (hooray).
President: The President guides the vision and direction of the club. They make the most of the committee to pursue our best interests and development.
Vice-President: The Vice-President is the primary contact between Monash Wushu and the rest of Monash University, particularly Monash Sport. This includes responsibility for booking performance times and stall space during O-week, handling changes to training (e.g. if we are moved from the Games Hall) etc. As the name suggests, the VP also assists the President with "getting stuff done".
Treasurer: Responsible for all the club’s finances. This job has straighforward tasks that can be learnt and followed easily but require the responsibility to carry out well and correctly each time. (Importantly, this crosses over easily into career skills and personal finance skills you may need in the future). The treasurer records and interacts with Monash Sport, our bank, performance clients and receives membership fees.
Marketing Officer: We couldn’t perform if no one knew who we were! The marketing officer keeps tabs of who we regularly perform for (e.g. Chinese New Year in the city) and approaches people we might perform for (e.g. schools, other unis, council festivals, etc.). Our performance pack, which contains information and a demonstration CD of our club, is available for distribution to potential clients. The marketing officer also keeps our fliers up to date for events like O-week and large performances for handing out to interested members of the public.
Secretary: No easy task! The secretary must be unbelievably attractive and intellectually outstanding. How else would they be able to handle the heavy load of writing down the important points of committee meetings? Or keep a current database of MWC members? Or get uniforms for members through Master Tang? The secretary is also simultaneously awarded “Most Amazing Person” upon becoming secretary.
The committee works together (like a family! who look nothing alike) toward the success of the Monash Wushu Club. We share a lot of tasks and come up with lots of ideas, making the whole process fun and interesting rather than intimidating.

Hey all.
For anyone thinking of taking up a committee place (more specifically treasurer) but think you need an accounting background...think again!
Of course it would help, but because the club's operations are so simple it's pretty straight forward.
Anyway I have detailed instructions on exactly what the treasurer has to do....and i'll be there to assist when I can
THINK ABOUT IT
Seriously looks good on the CV.....Yeah, you heard me...

Hi all!
The Semester 2 BBQ details are as follows:
When: 6pm Thursday 28th August
Where: Monash Sport BBQ (right outside the Cafeteria & the Games Hall)
Cost: NONE!
Also note that the Melbourne University Wushu and Taichi Club will be over for the evening. They will be joining us for the BBQ and for the training session.
Cheers,
Michael
Hey guys!
Once again, I would like to thank everyone who came to the premiere Friday night. It really meant a lot to myself and the cast to see so many people interested in this fun project we put so much time and effort into. I was literally in tears at the sound of cheering at the end credits, so thank you guys so much for all the support.
DVDs will be available soon, but unfortunately we will need to charge a small fee per DVD (to cover the cost of DVDs and cases). I will be taking orders next training session.
Again, thank you to everyone! I hope you had as much fun watching the movie as we did making it! (apart from Scott's little car bonnet accident)
Cheers!
-Jimmy
