Geocaching Melbourne Inc would like to announce that the new member of the Geocaching Melbourne committee is Lorraine Sleep Oglivie. Lorraine has been geocaching since 2013 and has cached over most of Australia. Lorraine has a strong connection to both the Geelong and Ballarat geocaching communities and together with her partner Chris form the formidable geocaching team, The Tritonz who were the top finders of Victorian caches in both 2015 and 2016.
Lorraine was an integral part of the organizing committee set up by GMI for the Surf Coast Event MEGA in 2016 where she helped tirelessly in the background, not just during the MEGA, but in the whole year leading up to the MEGA. GMI welcomes Lorraine into the committee and we all look forward to working with her.
We would also like to thank Jane Searle (Benjay21) and Peter Taurins (caughtatwork) for their nominations. We had 92 votes come in from around Victoria which were all individually checked and passed for their eligibility, so the interest in GMI continues to grow and we hope that we can work with these two individuals in some capacity in the future

Day Gowland (day1976) – President

Adriaan Homburg (ahomburg) – Secretary
