President’s Report -Hallo to all members and friends. Prior to the start of our last show we held the Annual General Meeting of the Club which went off pretty well. There was a good attendance of 70 members, the best we have had for many years. The Committee now has a new Entertainment Officer, Kevin Perry. Kevin is eager to take up his new position as soon as he returns from his holidays. Our three (3) new committee persons are Bernie James, Gail Crispin and Jenny Excell. Treasurer Judy Fairhead was the only nomination and so will continue looking after the finances for a further 2 years. There were no nominations for the Vice President position and as such becomes a ‘casual vacancy’ which will be publicised in the ‘Country Call’. Any nominations from members with twelve (12) months current membership will be considered and decided on by Committee.Rhonda Byrne did not seek to carry on as a Committee person and Bob Molloy missed out in the Committee ballot. I would like to thank both Rhonda and Bob for their past contributions whilst on Committee and I know that both will still volunteer to assist the Committee whenever asked to do so.

Congratulations to Secretary Raelz Gebhardt for achieving a Life Membership for services to the Club. The Industry Award went to Fred Payne, a Gawler Club member who has done a lot to promote Country music albeit with the Gawler C/music workshop as a radio presenter on Radio Adelaide101.5 for the past 6 years. The Merit Award was awarded by the members to Ian Fisk for his dedication to country music. Congratulations to both Fred and Ian.

There were three (3) constitution amendments passed. They are included elsewhere in this newsletter.

Vince Pollard, our late long term member, was finally laid to rest on the 27th July. His service was relatively

small but many people spoke well of Vince during the service and we all learned a lot about him from his earlier years.

Our last two shows, The Blackhats in July with guest artist Billy Dee and Charlie McCracken Band with guest artist Andy Dee were great with both days achieving near full houses. I am very happy with current attendances.

As from March 1st 2017 our membership will only have one (1) main category instead of the Ordinary/Entitlement option at present. Membership for the 2017/18 year will be $10 for all members. I would like to have all members to entice their friends to join up and receive the Club benefits and as such boost our membership numbers thus guaranteeing the longevity of the Club. We have to plan ahead and with all your help we can achieve it.

Next month we have the band Palomino Deluxe with guest artist Derani. Chloe Warrick will also attend to receive her ‘Len & Lorraine Wakefield Memorial Award’. She will also sing a few songs for us. I am looking forward for that.

Graeme has not been at our Club for quite a few years. Some information sent back in 2015 includes the following.Graeme began his music career in the Country Music Industry back in 1972 at the age of 18 and has continued in Country Music till this day. He has during his career toured throughout Australia several times with many high profile artists. He has performed at the Sydney Opera House, Home-bush and various clubs in and around Sydney many times. Over the 41 years, Graeme has gained experience in all aspects of the music industry and toured nationally with many high profile Country Music Artists with whom he has become good friends. Graeme has helped many amateur artists gain experience within the industry, some going on to win Star Maker or get into the top 20, and continues to give opportunity to many young up and coming artists who he believes, is the future of Country Music. Over the years Graeme has helped raise money for the Isolated Children, SIDS, Kids with Cancer, Aged Care, Angel Flight, Variety Clubs as well as individual fund raising for people with personal illnesses within the local communities. He has in the past and still continues to raise money for the Royal Flying Doctor Service. Graeme is also continuing to be involved in helping committees in various areas set up Country Music Festivals and in some cases is the entertainment officer, committee member or stage manager of the festivals. Many of the highlights of his career are listed on page 11 and here : http://country.ianfisk.org/artists/hugo/hugo.htm

Tru Country have been at the Club several times in the last few years, the last time was January this year. The members are Trevor Denton, Gary Standley, Gary Daniel,and Denis Gore. Check Gary’s website http://www.garydanielmusic.com/

Newsletter Distribution.With the recent large increase in postal rates, it is becoming much more necessary to reconsider how our members receive their Country Call.Country Call has been available to be downloaded from our website for many years. This has been publicized many times in the past. Unfortunately, not a large number of members have chosen this method of delivery. Please consider this option. Country Call from the website is in colour, delivered earlier than a posted version and this option saves the Club the cost of printing and postage. It also saves the effort of folding and posting!We tried making Country Call available at meetings, but not many favoured that method, but are offering that option again!The Club is requesting members choose one of the below delivery options.

1. Download from website2. Pick up at the next Club Meeting3. Be posted.

If those opting for picking up at Club Meetings don’t attend, Country Call would be posted shortly after the meeting.Please indicate to the Membership Officer or Publicity Officer which option you prefer. Country Call will continue to be posted to those not contacting us.

THE VICE PRESIDENT POSITION IS STILL VACANTThere were no nominations for this position at our recent AGM. This has been vacant since the death of Merv Jackson. Please consider nominating! Nomination forms are available at our meetings, or off our

website.

Left:- John Anderson was quite taken by Janelle Robinson at our July Club day.

Country Call ContributionsOther than Presidents and our previous Entertainment Officer, through the years very few have contributed content for Country Call. Contributions are welcome.

What do members want to see in Country Call? Very little feedback has been given to your publicity officer.

Len and Lorraine Wakefield Memorial FundSubject to certain conditions, the purpose of the fund is to assist younger talent with proven ability: a) in entering talent quests throughout South Australia, Mildura and Tamworth, b) by payment or part payment of professional tuition, and c) towards the cost of a musical instrument. The fund is administered by the ACMC committee with expenditure limited to the interest from capital invested (plus raffles from time to time), with all payments made to the appropriate body. Annually an awardee is chosen by the Full Committee. Contributions to the fund, which may be made to the club treasurer at any time will be acknowledged in the club newsletter.

After Lorraine’s passing the fund was renamed to include Lorraine’s name. The selection procedure has had to be changed slightly as fewer committee members have been attending the South Australian Country Music Festival in the Riverland where for many years a recipient was recommended.

Graeme is one of Australia’s most popular, hard working and successful Independent Artists with a natural appeal and rapport with audiences of all ages. He truly is a crowd pleaser and when performing never fails to give his all. He is acclaimed as ‘SA’s Favourite Son’ and ‘The Voice’ by media and fans alike owing to a clear and distinct voice, over which he has clear emotional control. Such voices are not common, but one such voice, however, does belong to Graeme Hugo, which has gained him both wide acclaim and industry recognition for his professionalism, enthusiasm, dedication, dynamic and unique contribution to the Country Music Industry. Years of constant travelling, 5 successful albums with number 6 in process, endless awards and accolades have well and truly earned Graeme a prominent place among the cream of Australian Country Music entertainers.

Sunnyvale is a farming district situated in the heart of the Northern York Peninsular and is also the home of an approx 120 year old church where Graeme & Lynne Hugo with help from friends and family began another chapter in their Country Music Book of Life. “Sunnyvale” as it will be known is predominately aimed at people being brought in by coach arriving at around 10.30am where they will be greeted with morning tea and a chance to browse around the souvenir shop. Then into the church hall for 1½ hour concert performed by Graeme and friends before heading into the dining hall for a 2 course meal. After a stroll around or just a chat for a while the coach will depart for their next destination at approx 2pm
