The <strong>Brindabella</strong> <strong>Ski</strong> <strong>Club</strong> sadly notes the passing on Saturday 26 June 2010 of founder<br />

and Honorary Life Member, Harry Black.<br />

On 15 June 1951 Harry Black convened and presided over a<br />

meeting which led to the creation of the YMCA <strong>Ski</strong> <strong>Club</strong> of<br />

Canberra (later to become the <strong>Brindabella</strong> <strong>Ski</strong> <strong>Club</strong>). Shortly<br />

afterwards Harry was elected as the club’s inaugural treasurer.<br />

His interest and active involvement in the activities of the<br />

<strong>Club</strong> continued over the years with him being bestowed life<br />

membership on the 20th anniversary of the founding of the<br />

<strong>Club</strong>.<br />

An obituary detailing Harry’s many achievements will be<br />

published in a coming edition of the Christie.<br />

The Committee, on behalf of all <strong>Club</strong> members, expresses<br />

deepest sympathies to the family and friends at his loss.<br />

EuLOGY APOLOGY<br />

A year ago an eulogy to Ted Winter was published in Christie<br />

which included an example of Ted’s poetry and some photos.<br />

The <strong>Club</strong> has been advised that it did not have copyright<br />

permission to use the poem or the accompanying photos.<br />

The Cub apologises for this mistake. Members are reminded<br />

that any use of Ted Winter’s poems or photos requires the<br />

permission of all of the copyright owners.<br />
