I am pleased to invite you to the inaugural meeting of the revived New Brighton Residents Association to be held at the New Brighton Museum on Monday August 5th at 7pm (up to an hour in length).

The agenda will be:

• A welcome from patron Bob Andrews.

• Brian Donovan will introduce myself as the current co-
ordinator and outline the purpose and little history of
NBRA.

• We will look for a show of hands to form a committee.

• Ask for volunteers within that group to assume initial
roles like secretary/admin
(This committee will meet at a later date to run through
the NBRA Incorporated constitution and funding options).

• Seek support outside of the committee, for instance
maintenance of webpage by an IT skilled person.

• A look at ideas around recruiting and engaging members
of the Association from within the residential area.

• An open discussion about any issues relating to living in
New Brighton.

Tea and coffee provided with bikkies but if you are a baker feel free to bring a plate.
