Shirley Taylor
     APSS President
        2011-12
 I showed this special slideshow during my
   President’s address at the 30 July 2012
 meeting. I’ve added some commentary on
here for those who may not have attended.
In August 2011, APSS President Tim Wade passed on
                 the Presidency of APSS to me




Tim handed over the book ‘A Lasting Legacy’ about Cavett Robert,
                the founder of the NSA in 1973.
APSS
      2011-12 Theme:

PASSION  PURPOSE  PROGRESS
Our APSS Year
 in Pictures
10 Monthly Meetings
We had lots of fun and laughter in our meetings
Some speakers had us doing some strange things!
And of course we all love having our photos taken
Some speakers were immortalised in visual images
Some speakers used visual aids. Here is Eric Feng
   throwing lots of balls into the audience!
Tim Bean showed us how 5 pounds of muscle compared to
                   5 pounds of fat!
And of course
when the speaker
    was very
handsome, we all
   wanted our
  photos taking
    with him!

monthly meetings – free for members
