On the 5th March 2005, the Apex Club of Brisbane recieved its official Charter from the Association of Apex Clubs of Australia.
The presentation of charter marked the end of a two year application process for the new club.
National Secretary, Jacinta Evans, presented the charter to the club at a special dinner held to mark the event. In attendance were Local Councillor, Felicity Farmer, Qld State President, Vince Boeske, Qld State Vice President Shane McDonald, a number of other State and National Board Members, Life Members as well as representatives from other Apex Clubs.
Apon accepting the Charter, Club president Chris Morahan praised the work done by the club members to bring the club to this point. Special mntion was made of Foundation president Samantha Russell, who performed most of the groundwork for the initial formation.
“We have already achieved a great deal in our short time,” remarked Mr Morahan,”however, it is important not to view the gaining of charter as the end of a lot of work, but as the beginning of a great adventure. I look forward to seeing how much we can achieve.”
