It is with pleasure that I can release Inverloch Windsurfing Club?s Strategic Plan 2014-16. Over the past 12 months committee members have been working very hard to produce a strategy that has relevance to our member?s and stakeholders while also articulating a pathway of sustainability and embedding the principals of good governance within our club, sport and the wider Inverloch community.

There are many people that need to be individually thanked for making this strategy come to life, particularly the current and former committees. I would like to say thank you to them for all the hard work and their commitment in making this strategy a reality.

The strategy is divided into five priorities areas and 33 broad strategies with deliverable targets. The strategy will become part of the overall operating framework for IWC, linking the clubs strategic direction with our members. This was one of the most important elements identified when developing our strategy and was considered to be one of the most fundamental requirements that the strategy should include.

This is an exciting time for IWC and as you read through the strategy you will see that we have set the bar quite high on deliverables to our members and stakeholders in the coming years. I hope you all read our plan, be inspired a little and become an active member of the IWC continuing to make it a great community sports club.

As identified key stakeholders, hard copies and corresponding cover letters have been sent to to the following people/organisations:

Mr Steve Walker, CEO, Yachting Victoria
Mr Brett Morris ? President, Australian Windsurfing Association
Mr Steve Coward ? President, Windsurfing Victoria
Mr Howard Scott, Recreation & Open Space Planner, Bass Coast Shire Council
Ms Jerril Rechter ? VicHealth CEO
Mr Barry Switzer, EO GippSport
Gippsland Ports, Anderson Inlet Harbour Master.

Nice work Dan

Congratulations to committee who gave a lot of time to contribute to this plan but biggest congratulations goes to Dan Poynton the team leader on this who put enormous effort into bringing this together.

great stuff!
so good to see a (future) plan to develop the sport.

Great stuff

A first rate piece of thinking and communication.

Very nice document which I enjoyed reading. I do most of my windsurfing on the other side of the bay ( anglesea). But have friends in Inverloch, so hopefully will make it to one of the events some day.

Currently no sailing with broken arm - very disappointing.

Hey MvB give us a heads up when you are coming - we generally meet at the Angling Club carpark - Cuttriss St.

Had a dream last night- won Tatts big time-bought Rippleside , set it up as IWC clubrooms, showers ,storage, cheap accomodation , board shop, hire and alcohol licence. -must get a ticket tonight!

Heya mobi,
Yeh had that same dream a while back too. But Rippleside is apparently being pulled down to make way for appartments or something.
Keep the dreams and ideas flowing. We need a home base!

Tell you what mobi....you buy us that million dollar waterside palace/ club rooms and we'd be willing to offer you a whopping 5% discount on your IWC membership....
yep, thats right, you'd get $1.87 off your membership...life doesn't get much sweeter!!
