It is with sadness that I announce my resignation from the Committee.
I have taken on too much personally and decided my focus was needed elsewhere and unfortunately the club fell second to that.
I believe even with Car clubs dissolving all around the world, that there is still something very special with the VW Club of SA and that is why it is still standing today.
I have faith in the committee that they will keep the VW Club of SA banner flying high! But it cannot be done without the support of the members, so attend events, keep your membership active, raise concerns, react to social media posts and if you can, join the committee and have a say in how the club is run.
These are tough times and although we usually only vote in committee members at the AGM, to keep the club going strong, exceptions can be made if you feel you would like a seat at the table.
My resignation to the committee has come a bit hasty so at the moment I haven’t given the comm time to decide on a suitable replacement for Chairman but I am sure our Vice Chair, Chris Pantelias will take my seat until a decision is made.
If you have any concerns, suggestions, or complaints, these are the people who are still here for you, VW Club related, (personal mental health issues are advised to be consulted by your local shrink as the committee is not trained for that):
Chris – SoDub - Vice Chairman
Sebastian – Sebz
Grant – G-spot
Marcel – Scratch
Ray – smashedmink
Jason – Heisenburg
Rion – Jetta16v
Thank you to the committee for giving up their free time to keep the passion of VW alive and I wish you all the best in keeping the club running for another 35 years.
Yours in VW
Jonno
Ex-Chairman
