HMCS Club History
HMCSC 30 year Anniversary and End-Of-Year Presentation Lunch, 7 December 2008
A
bright and sunny day greeted members old and new as they attended the
HMCSC 30 year anniversary and presentation lunch at the Holbrook RS
Club. Socializing, stories of glory days (and not so glorious days) and perusing of old albums full of photographs and press clippings. It was great to see some of the Clubs original members, even one of the Clubs old t-shirts, turn up.
First
award of the day was the HMCSC Clubman Award. This was very deservedly
awarded to Debbie Jones. Greg had the following to say about Deb;
"For 2008 the winner of this award is Debbie Jones. Debbie is a true clubman; she donates her time at HMCSC events to helping out all levels. Debbie lap scores, time keeps, signs on and collates race results. Debbie manages all this whilst assisting her four children to participate in many forms of racing and recreation. Debbie also manages one of our clubs greatest assets Murray Jones. The fact that she can do all of this and remain calm and friendly amazes me. Debbie is also a great friend to motorcycle people from all walks of life. People from other clubs like Wagga, Leeton and Griffith clubs recognise Debbie as a great clubman." Congrats Deb!
"Anthony has moved to Young with his earth moving business. Anthony has made many new friends and is participating in the Young motorcycle Club as a competitor and official. The thing about Anthony, he was the right person at the right time for this club. Anthony stepped up as an official when the club needed a person of Anthony? qualities. The club was in need. It was low on members and also low on money. This club was in danger of folding. Anthony along with others turned this around; he encouraged new members, and new officials and breathed new life back into the HMCSC. Anthony was the secretary that made a difference. His enthusiasm for motorcycle sports has given this club a second chance. Thank you Anthony for your efforts and we miss you around the club."

Second award for the day is a new perpetual trophy, the HMCSC Officials Encouragement Award, sponsored by the Webb Family. The inaugural winner was Wayne Rae. "Wayne is an
asset for this club. During 2008 he has attended many track marking
days for enduro, motocross practice days and also enduro and motocross
race meetings. Wayne always volunteers to help out. He is always
friendly and helpful and really seems to enjoy his duties as an official.
Well-done Wayne. Thanks for your efforts."
Last
perpetual Club award for the day was The Presidents Trophy. It was
noted that the first recipient of the award, first presented when Russ
Daniel was President, was Murray Cook (who supposedly got it by mowing
Russ's lawn!) Greg then went on to say;
"I cannot ignore history. The first person to win this award was Murray Cook, 2008 the award goes to Murray Cook and Angela Cook. Murray has put in a huge effort in 2008. He has worked as an official at motocross and enduro events. Murray has collated all of the Leaping Log Enduro results and is a valued member of the Riverina Interclub Committee. Angela has also made a huge effort in 2008. She has worked as an official at motocross and enduro events. Angela has collated all of the Leaping Log enduro results. Angela has also kicked off the club website...Thank you to Murray and Angela Cook"
Anthony Webb was then called upon to collect his Life Membership Award.
