IPA News

For the information of all members and friends, I am pleased to advise that the Commissioner of Police, Mal Hyde and Mrs Hyde (Marcia) have accepted our invitation to attend an official IPA luncheon at the Crown Hotel, Victor Harbour on Saturday the 19th of May, 2012, commencing at 12.30pm. The venue has been booked and the event has been widely publicised amongst our members, particularly down the South Coast. In addition, a representative of the Mayor will be attending the luncheon, as the Mayor will be away interstate.We are also hoping to see a number of members of the Retired Police Officers Association from the South Coast, maybe some from Police Legacy. I am pleased that a number of our members have already committed to attending the function. There will be some presentations during the afternoon. This is a great opportunity to foster the fellowship of our great organisation, but importantly as well, to acknowledge and thank Commissioner Hyde for his Patronage during his term as the CEO of SAPOL. Come along and help to make this memorable occasion for all.

CONFIRMATION OF YOUR ATTENDANCE WOULD BE APPRECIATED BY FRIDAY THE 11th of MAY, EITHER TO John Van Dulken our Treasurer or to the Regional Chairman, Fred Wojtasik. Contact details for both you will find in the Police Down Under.

The Executive and members welcomed Ross Pengilly to the monthly meeting and to give a presentation and update on current IPA matters.

Ross was hosted by Regional Chairman Fred Wojtasik and wife Sigrid.

An official visit has been scheduled for a tour of the newly opened Police Academy at Fort Largs on Thursday 19th of April 2012 at 10am.

Those attending will meet at the entrance to the Academy where free parking is available.

Following the tour morning tea will be provided.

The visit provides an opportunity for retired members to view the new state of the art training facility.
