Secunda Branch News
April 2005
SAIMC
News is out - the Secunda Branch is the branch of the year for 2004.
I would like to take this opportunity to give thanks to:
* My committee members firstly ... they are the most committed and dedicated team any one can wish to work with. It is through their passion that this was made a reality.
* Our president, I thank for his support through the year in attending meetings and events, which surely motivated the team even more to deliver to the members of the branch.
* Our sponsors for their support and education to ensure the branch continue with their endeavours.
* Our members who brought forward their ideas and attendance to our functions.
This year has already kicked off at high speed and we are on the cards for next year again. To the Johannesburg Branch and the Zambian Branch I say this was again a tough one and in the end the scoring ran very close. The newly found Zambian Branch gave me a real scare and I imagine only a more fierce competition for next year.
