Looking forward to catching up with you all at the William Angliss Institute on 27 October.

G’day All,
Our next lunch is next Wednesday 11 Oct at 12.30 in the Bistro of the RACV Club, 501 Bourke St Melbourne.
As always, smart casual dress, good humour and fine camaraderie plus main meals under $30 (please) are on the menu.
Sensible and constrained food and drink choices will help keep the costs at around $45 per head.
Please advise of your planned attendance to bctcooper@gmail.com by Monday arvo 9 Oct.
Just a reminder about lunch. Only 5 acceptances so far, a few regulars unable to attend.
Cheers
Brian

Dear Victorian Scheyvillian, the attached Questionnaire is being circulated to our state
membership in order to ascertain your views on different aspects of the proposed
Association closure.
Questions may be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”. Further comment may be added
under each if you wish to do so.
We are indebted to our NSW colleagues for providing this document.
If you have not already replied, please return your reply to the sender (webmaster@otu.asn.au) by 20 October 2023.
Kind regards,
Frank Miller
Chairman, Vic Chapter.
=========================================
VICTORIAN OTU CHAPTER QUESTIONAIRE
Please answer Yes or No along with any comments you may have under each question.
Q1. Should the State chapters continue to operate as separate entities providing a point
of contact and the vehicle for camaraderie and fellowship?

Q7. Are you aware that OTU graduates are allowed to join the Duntroon Society?
Q8. Should the OTU Association support or fund a museum at the Scheyville National Park?
Q9. Should the Vic Chapter charge subscription membership for its/ members?

Q10. Should the Vic Chapter contribute to any other charities (Legacy etc.)?
Q11. Should the National Association donate monies to youth leadership schemes like
the Lady Somers Camp prior to the wind up? Note that once are wound up there will be

Q12. Should the bulk of the monies held at National HQ be distributed on a pro-rata
basis (that is membership of Chapters) as they are now?
Q13. Should the National Association commission a statue or painting of an OTU
cadet for display in a museum?
