new admin positions

ok there are some more possible tasks for those of you who do not yet have an administrative role. These are:

- contacting the manager/proprietor of the major manufacturing industries in Ararat to see whether they will come and talk to us, or even take us on a guided tour through their facilities. These are AME (Ararat manufacturing Enterprises) where the contact person is apparently Peter Carthew. I am told that this company 'employs every young person in town'. Another major employer is Gaysons who manufacture farming equipment and so on - I do not have a specific contact there.

- contacting the educational officer at the Ararat prison and seeing whether they will come and talk to us. I don't have a name or a contact but it should be possible to find these online.

- looking into the possibility of a tour or site visit to one of the major wineries in the region, for instance Seppelts, Bests Winery, or Great Western.

- contacting the people at the Ararat YMCA and trying to set up some association with their holiday activity programs.

Let me know if any of you would like to take any of these on...
