LAST CALL-OUT TO MEMBERS - OUR AGM 11.30AM THURSDAY 21 NOVEMBER If you haven't RSVP'ed yet let us know first thing in the morning if you're attending our AGM at 11.30am. We will be holding a directors meeting first at 10.30am followed by the AGM at 11.30am to 12.30pm. STAND BY for the release of our 2024 highlights video on Thursday afternoon. It's DEADLY!
WE ARE READY FOR THE WET SEASON - Thanks LEROY & KMS Team! We are delighted with the great repair work by the deadly team at Kununurra Maintenance Service Pty Ltd. Since being built in the late 1980's, the poles supporting the roof over our radio studios had severely corroded with some dangerously suspended off the ground, posing a threat to our premises. The back of our studios is low lying and floods - poles were not originally cemented off the ground to protect them. Over the years they rusted away with many snapping completely. It was a big job commenced by our awesome handyman Shaun Storer who did some of the initial heavy digging. Then the boys at KMS took over with bigger machinery, and the photos tell the story. Huge thanks to third year apprentice Leroy Pinney who was a real trooper - as well as Johno, Trent, Matt, and Luke - what a great team! We are now safe and ready for the coming wet season. Job well-done. THANK YOU!
UPDATE on our AGM 11.30am on THURSDAY 21st November! PLEASE RSVP asap. Pop into our office if you would like to become a member or apply to be on our Board. We will be holding a directors meeting at 10.30am to approve applications and deal with some urgent matters prior to the AGM, which will now start at 11.30am. We will provide lunch and celebrate our BIG YEAR afterwards. Come join us!
