We would also like to recognise those who have left the ARYA committee this year. Norman Wallis (SA) has resigned from the position of Treasurer while Trevor Jeffries (SA) resigned from the position of Public Officer. Thank you to both who have been on the committee for a number of years and have worked tirelessly supporting the association. Unfortunately Trevor Jeffries passed away a few days prior to the AGM and our thoughts are with family and friends at this time.
