NRPA NEWSLETTER APRIL 2017
Dear NRPA Member / Noordhoek Resident,
NRPA AGM
At the well attended AGM on 27 March we heard feedback on all that the NRPA achieved this year and a number of the 2030 Vision Projects were represented, supported by visual displays. To view the profiles of your new Exco click here. Three members of the previous Exco – Lynn Brown, Robin Stott and Marike Colyn – stood down and appreciation was expressed for their hard work and time volunteered. Particular thanks go to Lynn Brown whose dedication, sensitivity and long hours of work have been so integral to the formation and professional running of the association up to now. We are indebted to her and wish her well!
